Contents:
Getting started Basic structure and function of human joints Muscle : the primary stabilizer and mover of the skeletal system Biomechanical principles Shoulder complex Elbow and forearm Wrist Hand Axial skeleton : osteology and arthrology Axial skeleton : muscle and joint interactions Miscellaneous topics in kinesiology Hip Knee Ankle and foot Kinesiology of walking Kinesiology of running
Summary: "With its focus on the normal and abnormal mechanical interactions between the muscles and joints of the body, Kinesiology of the Musculoskeletal System: Foundations for Rehabilitation, 3rd Edition provides a foundation for the practice of physical rehabilitation. This comprehensive, research-based core text presents kinesiology as it relates to physical rehabilitation in a clinically relevant and accessible manner. It provides students and clinicians with the language of human movement -- and acts as a bridge between basic science and clinical management. Full-color anatomic and kinesiologic illustrations clearly demonstrate the anatomy, functional movement, and biomechanical principles underlying movement; and dynamic new video clips help you interpret new concepts with visual demonstration."--Publisher's description
