Anatomy and Human Movement: Structure and Function describes the
musculoskeletal structures of the human body and the biomechanics
behind their movements. The book provides anatomical descriptions of
bone and muscle groups with emphasis on the joints; enumeration of
common traumatic or pathological problems affecting the
musculoskeletal structures; and the use of palpation through intact
skin to describe the structures, as well as how movements can be
tested and analyzed with respect to joint movement, muscle work and
function. Chapters on embryology; the skin and its appendages;
terminologies used in the book; and an account of the structure and
function of the nervous system are included as well. Students of
anatomy will find the text a valuable reference material.
