Content
Fully revised and updated for the second edition, with a new section on the older patient and expanded advice on physiotherapy and rehabilitation programmes, the Oxford Handbook of Sport and Exercise Medicine is an indispensable companion for any professional working in sport and exercise medicine. Sport medicine is an evolving discipline. This handbook brings together the common problems and diagnoses with a focused summary of the latest strategies, management plans, and evidence-based protocols. Authored by leading figures in sport and exercise medicine, this handbook is specially designed to cover the curriculum for postgraduate sport and exercise medicine exams. It presents the core knowledge in a concentrated and concise format. Arranged by system, it focuses on the needs of the patient and offers an immediate guide to all aspects of diagnosis and treatment, exercise benefits, and epidemiology. Practical, accessible, and clinically based, this is the single global handbook for the undergraduate, postgraduate or experienced specialist. Domhnall MacAuley is a specialist in sport and exercise medicine and a senior editor at the BMJ. He was senior research fellow at the Queen's University of Belfast and Professor of Primary Health Care (Research) at the University of Ulster.

He was one of the first to be awarded specialist accreditation in sport and exercise medicine in the UK and was on the advisory board for the formation of the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, the first such Faculty in the British Isles. He was awarded the Duke of Edinburgh Prize by the Institute of Sport and Exercise Medicine in 2010 and, in 2011, received the Robert Campbell Memorial Medal from the Ulster Medical Society.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
