Kinesiology of the Human Body Under Normal and Pathological Conditions

By Arthur Steindler. This comprehensive study of the mechanics of joint function in health and disease covers four major areas which include general kinetics, the trunk including the spine, the extremities and the gait. Emphasis is on the clinical significance and practical application of kinetic findings. 'This is not a book that will be outmoded in a few years, but rather is in itself an entire library of the subject of kinesiology and will serve its reader through a lifetime. No physician or educator who deals with the musculoskeletal system can consider his library complete without this brilliant treatise.' -The journal of Bone and joint Surgery
