Sports Injuries (Library Binding) (ISBN-13: 9780737763584)

Sports-related injuries happen 3.5 million times each year, but that doesn't stop us from enjoying our athletic pastimes. This guidebook provides essential information on sports injuries, but also serves as a historical survey, by providing information on the controversies surrounding its causes, and first-person narratives by people coping with sports injuries. Patients, family members, or caregivers explain the condition from their own experience. The symptoms, causes, treatments and cures are explained in detail. Essential to anyone trying to learn about diseases and conditions, the alternative treatments are explored. Student researchers and readers will find this book easily accessible through its careful and conscientious editing and a thorough introduction to each essay. Includes charts, graphs, and tables.
