(Perfect Score of 100) "...This book is more than sufficient for exposing undergraduate students to sports-related injuries, how they are identified, and how they might be treated by a professional. It includes a good deal of basic anatomy and physiology that is complemented well by treatment therapies for site-specific injury prevention and therapeutic care following injury." Written for students within Exercises Science and Exercise Physiology, Survey of Athletic Injuries for Exercise Science clearly outlines traditional prevention and care of athletic injuries for those who lack an athletic training background. It address the role that exercise science, exercise physiology, or professionals from other health-related fields play in the treatment of injuries and illnesses in the physically active population. The text addresses each body segment along with other information that impacts the physically active, such as ergogenic aids, supplements, nutrition, and exercise prescription. Throughout the text case studies and realistic situation boxes discusses interesting cases from the field. Key Features: Provides a necessary resource on athletic injury and prevention for the non-athletic trainer. Clearly defined chapter objectives identify critical information for students Critical thinking questions ask students to examine and reason through a variety of scenarios. Case Studies throughout analyzes and explores real-world situations.

Physical education focuses on developing physical fitness. Athletic training is the practice of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic injuries, and medical conditions. It encompasses the practical aspects related to the prevention and recovery from injuries embroiled in physical activities whereas exercise science includes research into the physiological aspects of human motion. Both of these fields provide strategies that are designed to maintain or improve an individual's health and to help him recover from injuries. Different approaches, evaluations, methodologies and advanced studies on exercise science, physical education, athletic training and health have been included in this book. It covers in detail some existent theories and innovative concepts revolving around exercise science, physical education, athletic training and health. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing a state-of-the-art account of the nature, distribution and determinants of sports injury in children and adolescents, this unique volume uses the public health model to describe the scope of the injury problem and the associated risk factors and evaluate the current research on injury prevention strategies as described in the literature. Thoughtfully divided in six sections, the nature of the young athlete and epidemiology of pediatric and adolescent sports injury are described first. Then an overview of the most common types of youth sports injuries as well as more serious injuries (e.g., concussions) and outcomes is presented, followed by a discussion of injury causation and prevention. Suggestions for future research rounds out the presentation. Each chapter is illustrated with tables which make it easy to examine injury factors between studies. Throughout, the editors and contributors have taken an evidence-based approach and adopted a uniform methodology to assess the data available. Ideal for physicians, physical therapists, athletic trainers and sports scientists alike, Injury in Pediatric and Adolescent Sports concisely and accurately presents the situation faced by clinicians treating young athletes and the challenges they face in keeping up with this growing and active population. Furthermore, the information in this book will be useful to allied health researchers and sport governing bodies as an informed basis for continued epidemiological study and implementation of injury prevention initiatives designed to reduce the incidence and severity of injuries encountered by young athletes.
