Klappentext
This book contains in-depth discussions on the fundamental biomechanical and physiological principles underlying the acts of throwing, shooting, hitting, kicking, and tackling in sports, as well as vision training, sports injury, and rehabilitation. Sections covered include golf, tennis, baseball, football and soccer, basketball, and performance and rehabilitation. This new edition includes new chapters on body and arm contributions to ball trajectory in baseball, concussion and the visual snow syndrome, visual performance in sports, kinematic analysis of baseball pitching, and more.
This book is essential reading for biomedical engineers, physicists, sport scientists, and physiologists who wish to update their knowledge of biomechanical and biomedical principles and their applications to sports. The book can be used in a one-semester senior or graduate-level course in biomechanics, biomedical engineering, sports technology, sports medicine, or exercise physiology.
Biografie (George K. Hung)
George Hung, PhD, is a leading figure in the field of vision research, particularly in the areas of oculomotor control of accommodation, and vergence and saccadic eye movements.
