MEDIA REVIEWS

Review from previous edition This dictionary contains almost every sports science, anatomy, biomechanic, injuries description, and psychological term as related to sports medicine/science. It is very comprehensive and is a must for any student or teacher's bookshelf. A dictionary that will not be dated in a few years. Great investment. * Cheltenham. UK. *
no student of sport, whatever their speciality or level of study, should be without a copy of this authorative and already well-respected dictionary. * Reference Reviews, Volume 21, Number 7 *
