5.0 out of 5 stars
The only one of its kind,
By Patrick Parker (Mississippi State University) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Human Tendons (Hardcover)
This is an awesome, expansive discussion specifically on the subject of tendons. In fact, it is the only book specifically on tendon that i have been able to find. Trying to locate specifics on tendon anatomy, physiology, pathology, and histology is very frustrating but this book collects it all into one place with excellent discussion, photos, and drawings. This is the kind of subject-specific anatomy and physiology book i think we need more of.
5.0 out of 5 stars
