Sports Ophthalmology by BM Zagelbaum Pdf

With eye injuries on the rise--2.4 million annually, of which roughly 100,000 are sports-related--the subject of eye trauma has become increasingly interesting to those who manage eye injuries. As a result, there had been a need for a comprehensive volume devoted to sports ophthalmology, and this volume answers that need. by providing complete material in this discipline, including a discussion of demographies, eye injuries (ie, mechanisms, types, playing conditions), prevention, and management options. As well, the anatomy of the eye, anterior and posterior eye segment injuries, visual training, and medicolegal aspects will be covered. Each sport is discussed separately (ie football, racket sports, water sports, baseball, etc) as the risks, mechanisms of injury, playing conditions and management conclusions differ from sport to sport. Another important reason for this book is that an increasing number of trainers, team doctors and primary care sports physicians are treating upwards of 50% of all the eye injuries they see. This book would be a valuable addition to their office.

Routledge Handbook of Ergonomics in Sport and Exercise by Youlian Hong Pdf

Ergonomics is concerned with the ‘fit’ between people and their work. With an increasing number of people becoming conscious about their health and participating in sport or physical activity, ergonomics has become an increasingly prominent concern within the sport and exercise sciences. From the design of footwear and artificial playing surfaces, to studies of proprioception by obese children , the way in which people interact with their environment - designed and natural – has important implications for performance sport and for the design of safe and beneficial forms of physical activity. The Routledge Handbook of Ergonomics in Sport and Exercise is the first book to offer a comprehensive and in-depth survey of cutting-edge scientific research into ergonomics in sport and exercise. Written by world-leading international scientists and researchers, the book explores key topics such as: Musculoskeletal adaptation to sports and exercise Environmental factors of injury and fatigue Load weight and performance Ergonomics in adapted sports and exercise Measurement in sports and exercise Modeling and simulation in ergonomics design Influence of playing surface, footwear and equipment design Bridging the gap between fundamental scientific research in sport and exercise and applications in sport and exercise contexts, this is an important reference for all advanced students, researchers and professionals working in sport and exercise science, kinesiology, sports technology, sports engineering, ergonomics, and product design.
