| Abstract
|
:
|
"Bridging the gap between exercise physiology principles and clinical practice, this text provides comprehensive coverage of both traditional basic science and clinical exercise physiology principles. The book presents clinical applications and examples that connect theory to practice. More than 500 full-color illustrations and numerous graphs and tables complement the text. Reader-friendly features including perspective boxes, research highlights, biography boxes, and case studies engage readers and reinforce key concepts." --Book Jacket
