Essentials of Human Mechanics – For Health Care Professionals (2001) Alfred M. Rozeiu

Description

A fundamental textbook covering the statics and dynamics of human posture and locomotion. It explores basic concepts of matter, motion, and energy, detailed mechanics of the body framework (skeletal, muscular, and nervous systems), forces, levers, gait, and the response of biological materials and structures to deformation. It is intended to provide clinicians with a basic understanding of mechanical principles relevant to the physical causes of disease.
