Clinical Biomechanics in Human Locomotion

"Clinical Biomechanics in Human Locomotion: Gait and Pathomechanical Principles discusses key concepts on how biomechanics links to the development of locomotive pathology via mechanical laws, human anatomy, and physiology across different ages and under variable levels of health. The book provides fundamental principles and practical data combined with guidance on how to apply these concepts within the clinical biomechanics field. Coverage includes gait variance, anatomical functional units within the lower limb, and the clinical approach to understanding the pathomechanics of pathology in abnormal locomotion and disease."--Page 4 of cover.
