About the book- The text, by the author, is most suited to the professional coach, the athlete in the field and the sports medicine practitioner who are members of the support team attached to players. Leaving aside the professionals, even for a lay reader, the knowledge on how injured muscles in our body can be saved from more injury, is helpful.
No more is sport an activity for physical fitness and enjoyment and personal satisfaction. It has been turned into a statecraft and sportpersons are slaves to work for the glory of the State. This is leading to sportpersons attempted to reach the limits of physical performances and consequent injuries. In some cases, it leads to the end of their sports career.
The text speaks of the existing remedies to counter muscular injuries, and also comments on the latest research done to open new frontiers of hope for the affected athlete. Of particular benefit are the illustrations accompanying the text which explain the various techniques and tape position for use on the injured person.
Arguably this text is the first attempt to add to the scarceliterature on the subject available in this part of the world. It is hoped the targeted reader uses the information available between the covers of this book, to his maximum benefit.
