The IOC Manual of Sports Injuries

August 15th, 2012

Wiley is pleased to announce the publication of Roald Bahr's latest book: The IOC Manual of Sports Injuries: An Illustrated Guide to the Management of Injuries in Physical Activity.

Created in collaboration with the Medical Commission of the International Olympic Committee, this exciting new book provides an extensive guide to the diagnosis, management, and continued care of patients with sports injuries.

Written and edited by an international cast of world-leading experts, The IOC Manual of Sports Injuries embraces a problem-oriented approach to guide the reader through the assessment and management of injuries in physical activity. Over 500 full-color illustrations augment the text, offering detailed views of the techniques, procedures, and other clinically-relevant information being described.

This practical and easy-to-use manual is the first book to distill the collective expertise of the world's leading authorities on the medical care of athletes in a go-to reference for primary care and other non-specialist clinicians.
