| Summary |
"Created expressly for those who will work in physical activity fields, the thoroughly revised and updated edition of Kinetic Anatomy continues to address how anatomy affects movements - how the human body is constructed and how it moves - by discussing bones, tying those bones together to make articulations, placing muscles on the bones, and observing how the joints move when the muscles contract." "The second edition of Kinetic Anatomy lays the foundation for students to learn how anatomy affects movement of the human body. Readers will be able to apply the knowledge from this resource as they work with, treat, and train the physically active."--BOOK JACKET |
