Sports Injuries: Your Illustrated Guide to Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment 2nd Revised edition by Walker, Brad (2012) Paperback Paperback – January 1, 1700

The Anatomy of Sports Injuries is a great 'go to' reference for home use, or - in my case - a personal training studio. We train a cross section of people, from athletes to stay at home moms, business men and women to teachers, doctors, dentists and lawyers. Bottom line is most will, at some point, develop a 'sports injury' of one kind or another. This particular book doesn't go into great detail on specific injuries, but it is a wonderful, quick reference source to determine the actual injury, prognosis, and treatment plan. There are even a few specific exercises for each trauma. Additionally, the layout, by area of the body, allows one to rapidly find the specific locale and possible injury. This is almost always the first book I refer to regarding an injury, then I may or may not proceed to less user friendly books to obtain additional information. Great book. Couldn't recommend it more highly.

A great book for understanding injuries and how to come back from them. The illustrations are very good and help you with recovery.

Straight forward. Easy to understand

The best book to explain injuries and how one can treat them. The graphics are explicit so you can see the exact muscles used or involved in the injuries

Interesting book.

It's a fantastic practical book that I reference quite often.

I love this book, because there are so many different stretches for the entire body. I use it everyday; I have the CD with stretch routines as well. It's a great tool to have.

I thought this book will have a Anatomy of how injuries look like. There's not much of that, plus is a little hard to pinpoint the illustration with the information about that specific injury. Maybe for future reference when it comes to something like anatomy, is always best to have one injury, rehab, anatomy of the joint involved in on page per injury or anatomy part. One book you may want to look for is The Complete Guide to Sports Injuries by H. Winter Griffith. It may not have illustrations but the information on how deal with an injury is there and one injury per page for easy searching, and sorting alphabetically.
