COVER: https://i.imgur.com/bvJpZLL.jpg TITLE: Basic Biomechanics of the Musculoskeletal System, 4th edition (2012) AUTHOR: Margareta Nordin, Victor H. Frankel ISBN-13: 9781609133351 SPECS: https://shop.lww.com/p/9781609133351

DESCRIPTION: Now in its Fourth Edition, "Basic Biomechanics of the Musculoskeletal System" uses a direct and comprehensive approach to present students with a working knowledge of biomechanical principles of use in the evaluation and treatment of musculoskeletal dysfunction. The text opens with a chapter that introduces the basic terminology and concepts of biomechanics; the remainder of the book then focuses on the biomechanics of tissues and structures, the biomechanics of joints, and applied biomechanics.
