Kudos to Dr. Bull for compiling one of the most comprehensive reference guides dedicated to the injuries of the athlete! Found within the covers is a comprehensive list of conditions and injuries starting with systemic injuries then ranging to sport specific issues. It is well done as it addresses issues from a mechanism of injury perspective, an anatomical perspective, pathophsyiology considerations, an examination perspective and a treatment perspective! A must have for any sports medicine professional!
