The study of accidental injury lies at the interface between medical diagnosis and treatment and research on biomechanical principles of tissue organization. Containing chapters written by authorities in the field of human traumatic injury, this second edition covers topics ranging from automobile restraint systems to cell and tissue biomechanics.
This second edition, completely revised and expanded with a new chapter on lower extremity trauma, presents chapters written by widely recognized authorities in the field of human traumatic injury. The topics covered range from automobile restraint systems to cell and tissue biomechanics, and will interest a variety of scholars and professionals including physicians; biomechanical researchers; mechanical, biomedical and automotive engineers; as well as attorneys and jurists involved in accidental injury cases.
