Good Overall Review of Sports Medicine,
By Jairzinho (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Athletic Training and Sports Medicine (Hardcover)
This text provides a good review of sports medicine and rehabilitation of common injuries for the medical professional. Very readable--a good start for those interested in musculoskeletal medicine and athletics. The chapters are well organized and well-referenced. I think this is one of the better sports medicine books available.

Great teaching text,
By "gaatc" (Houston, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Athletic Training and Sports Medicine (Hardcover)
This text was essential in helping me teach our student athletic trainers. It was very well written and should be a model text for every sports medicine/athletic training program. The authors did an uot standing job. By far, the best athletic training text I have ever used.
