Using a problem-solving approach, you'll explore all of the core information an athletic trainer needs to know, including prevention, recognition, assessment, management, and disposition of injuries and diseases common in active individuals. Basic medical concepts and related scientific information are woven throughout to help you build a strong foundation of knowledge in athletic training practices. In this text for advanced students in athletic training, Anderson (Bridgewater State College) addresses conditions and injuries seen in the physically active population across the lifespan. The text can be used in a general upper-level athletic training class or integrated into a specific injury assessment or evaluation class. Students should have prior coursework in applied musculoskeletal anatomy and introductory athletic training. The previous edition, published in 2000, was titled Sports Injury Management. This edition offers an expanded art program and new chapters on cardiovascular, neurologic, and endocrine conditions. Annotation © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
