physiotherapy for decades, its value in other systems of the body,
such as cardiovascular, respiratory and neurological has emerged in
recent years. This trend is being increasingly reflected in degree
curricula.
This novel textbook is designed predominantly for
physiotherapists and offers a dynamic insight into the applications
of exercise therapy across the body's systems in disease management
and health promotion.
The focus on exercise as a crucial modality in preventing and
treating disease will attract readers following courses in sport
& exercise science and physical activity as well as
physiotherapy. The book will also appeal to practitioners,
particularly those pursuing post-qualification courses in
rehabilitation.

Physiotherapy
Both the undergraduate student and the experienced clinician
should receive useful information relating to exercise, its
assessment and benefits. This reviewer found it very easy to
understand, and a valuable addition to clinical practice... I
would encourage all clinicians to have a copy available for
reference purposes.
