  • Cutting Edge. Presents the latest research findings in each area to provide an authoritative guide to the field.
Industry Reviews
"This book is novel in its attempt to provide evidence for sport rehabilitation. To my knowledge, this is the first book of its kind to examine the validity of tools while still providing a broad knowledge base and it will enhance the field of sports rehabilitation." (Doody's, 18 November 2011)
