It also provides essential information for those involved in back pain prevention, in sports and fitness training, and in medico-legal practice. For biomechanists, it indicates how their science can be applied to answer a range of clinical questions. The authors are internationally renowned for their research into various aspects of back pain, and they integrate their expertise to present an authoritative account of the subject."--BOOK JACKET
