In clinical practice, biomechanical problems do not present themselves in a clear cut textbook style. Patients do not move about in one convenient "plane" with "centres of gravity" and "force vectors pinned to their bodies. Nevertheless health professionals still need to appreciate the presence and significance of forces acting on and within the patient's body. The information in this book provides the common core of principles of mechanics and biomechanics necessary for a basic understanding of the science. The author provides the reader with a basic level text including case studies and key words. It introduces important concepts in mechanics applied to the human body, remedial equipment, materials, structures, fluids and tissues. The approach is on research and teaching experience. The result is a useful book for physiotherapy students, biomechanics, occupational therapists and physical education students.
