This condensed, yet fairly
comprehensive, sports medicine manual provides an overview of common
sports injuries seen in athletes of varying ages. The 11 chapters
(primarily organized by body part) cover medical and musculoskeletal
conditions and include discussions on both operative and nonoperative
care. The book is written in an easy-to-read format, with topics often
divided into pathogenesis, prevention, clinical findings, complications,
treatment, and prognosis....The text covers most of the common injuries
seen in sports medicine. Specific chapters devoted to concussion, the
young athlete, and the female athlete are especially useful."--Mayo Clinic Proceedings (Mayo Clinic Proceedings )
