Applied Sport Mechanics, Fourth Edition, helps undergraduates understand how the fundamental laws of human movement affect athletes’ performances. Foundational principles of kinetics, kinematics, and sports technique are clearly presented and then explored through a variety of applied scenarios.

This text draws on the disciplines of neurophysiology and physics to explore how the nervous system controls the actions of muscles to produce human motion in relation to biomechanical principles.

Detailing up-to-date research technologies and approaches, Research Methods in Biomechanics, Second Edition, assists both beginning and experienced researchers in developing methods for analyzing and quantifying human movement.

Biochemistry Primer for Exercise Science, Fourth Edition, presents an introduction to biochemistry that gives readers insight into the molecular aspects of physical activity. The fourth edition features updated research and new information on signaling pathways and the regulation of gene expression.

Structure and Function of the Musculoskeletal System, Second Edition, offers readers a clear conception of how the components of the musculoskeletal system coordinate to produce movement and adapt to the strain of everyday physical activity and the effects of aging.

Ergonomics in Sport and Physical Activity: Enhancing Performance and Improving Safety is the first text to provide an in-depth discussion of how the principles of ergonomics can be applied in the context of sport and other physical activities to reduce injury and improve performance.

The e-book format allows readers to bookmark, highlight, and take notes throughout the text. When purchased through the HK site, access to the e-book is immediately granted when the order is received.

Essentials of Electromyography explains and explores the use of electrical recordings of muscle movements for students taking courses in EMG or any professional dealing with human movement.
