A sound knowledge of some of the biomechanical material and concepts forms a necessary foundation for the study of physiotheapy. This book aims to explain biomechanics at an introductory level, and requires only a basic understanding of anatomy and physiology. It includes numerous examples and clinical applications both for information and to provide illustrations of underlying mechanical principles. The book emphasizes the fundamentals of biophysics using a largely non-mathematical approachl. It should be useful to all those needing to acquire an understanding of the basic principles of biomechanics.
