The Standard by Which Others are Compared,

This review is from: Arnheim's Principles of Athletic Training: A Competency-Based Approach with eSims Bind-in Card (Hardcover)
This huge book, now in its 12th edition was begun in 1963. It is intended for the education of atheletic trainers. Its primary concern is in preventing and when necessary treating sports injuries.
This new 12th edition is a major upgrade to the book. It has been extensively reorganized into major sections that have related subject matter concentrated together. In addition, each chapter has been rewritten to reflect the latest techniques, equipment, procedures, and drugs that affect sports medicine. The biggest changes are in chapters devoted to the musculoskeletal injuries. These chapters have beeg significantly expanded and are now as comprehensive as possible within the scope of practice in atheletic training. Finally, each book comes with a license to use the extensive on line support for the book. This is broken into two areas. First is additional information related to each chapter including flash cards, self-quizzes, and other resources. Second is the eSims area which helps students prepare for the atheletic training certification exam. This is the standard in the industry.

I am a student Athletic trainer. As such I needed a book that clearly explained the material that I was covering in class and in labs. This book has a lot of very useful information, is easy to read, it is organized well, and I would strongly recommend it to anyone in the field of sports medicine/ athletic training.
