A comprehensive guide analyzing the physical laws governing exercise, focusing on fundamental concepts of forces, properties of loads, lever systems (including linkages and arthrokinematics), muscle function, joint control, and principles of resistance training.
A foundational guide designed for beginners in weightlifting and personal training, explaining core concepts of physics and force as they relate to human anatomy during exercise. The book bridges the gap between basic scientific principles and practical application in the weight room.
This study guide, Part 2 of a series for health sciences, focuses on the biomechanics of the human body. Key topics include the anatomy and movement of the spine, loads on the spine, posture, the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ), and detailed tissue mechanics covering connective tissue, cartilage, bone, muscle, and peripheral nerves.
A text covering the methodology and application of the Basic Finite Element Method (FEM) specifically tailored for research and study within injury biomechanics.
Explores the basic mechanical principles that govern movement and injury, providing clinicians with practical insights for rehabilitation and preventative care planning.
This book provides valuable information on orthodontic biomechanics, focusing on the use of statically indeterminate appliances for specific tooth movements in complex cases. It addresses problems like teeth migrations, asymmetries, and retreatment, detailing the application of four key appliances: transpalatal bars, lingual arches, rectangular loops, and root correction springs.
A comprehensive textbook that sheds light on a conceptual approach to the biomechanics and kinesiology of the human body. It aims to make the complex physical and mathematical principles of human movement science easier for students to understand.
A comprehensive textbook focusing on the principles of biomechanics and motor control as they apply to human movement, intended for professionals and students in physical therapy, kinesiology, and rehabilitation medicine.
A foundational textbook covering the structure, function, biophysics, and regulation of smooth muscle tissues, focusing on contractile mechanisms and mechanical properties in various organ systems, essential for understanding vascular, gastrointestinal, and respiratory system dynamics.
A comprehensive edited volume detailing the fundamental principles and practical applications of mechanics as applied to living biological systems and engineering problems.
This book explores the concept of Biotensegrity, detailing its origins, fundamental geometric principles (including Platonic polyhedra and vector equilibrium), and how these structural systems apply to complex biological organisms. It covers the balance of unseen forces, various tensegrity models (T-prisms, T-helixes), and the relationship between structure and energy in living systems.
This book covers the fundamental biomechanical principles related to human movement, utilizing concepts from kinesiology and physical education. It serves as a foundational text for understanding movement dynamics.
A volume detailing the principles and practices of neuroimaging as applied to visual pathways and orbital anatomy. It is part of a series published by Oxford University Press in cooperation with the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

The book provides an easily assimilable illustrated guide to the more common and important ocular disorders for students, general medical practitioners, and specialists in other branches of medicine. It is intended to serve as an introduction for residents commencing ophthalmic training.
This book addresses the spectrum of skin tumors and cutaneous reactions resulting from cancer therapy in pediatric patients. It focuses on the crucial role of dermatologists in the multidisciplinary care required for both managing acute side effects and detecting secondary skin cancers in children receiving cancer treatment.
This book argues that systemic diseases, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and heart disease, often stem from oral health issues like infected gums, root canals, jawbone cavitations, and toxic metals. It details how a biological (holistic) dentist can help readers avoid and reverse chronic illness that may begin in the mouth.
A comprehensive clinical handbook focusing on the diagnosis and management of severe haematological disorders and emergencies. Topics covered include septic shock, acute transfusion reactions, hypercalcaemia, hyperviscosity, disseminated intravascular coagulation, management of anticoagulant overdosage (heparin and warfarin), massive blood transfusion protocols, sickle cell crisis, and tumour lysis syndrome.
A foundational textbook emphasizing clinical examination, history taking, and physical assessment skills, designed to help medical students and practitioners narrow diagnostic options. This edition is edited by Anna R Dover, J Alastair Innes, and Karen Fairhurst.
