This volume, part of the well-reviewed Facts On File Library of Health and Living, is similar to others in the series. It provides clearly written, alphabetically arranged information on topics of interest to the public and health professionals.
More than 150 entries (Abrasions to Youth participation in sports) describe causes, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of sports injuries for amateur and professional athletes. The articles, usually about a page or two each, are clearly written and are generally listed under the common name with a medical term in parentheses: Shoulder separation (acromioclavicular joint injury), Swimmer's ear (otitis).
Thorough indexing and cross-references add to the volume's usefulness. The bibliography lists sports-medicine journals and texts as well as a few more popular titles, many dated 2003. Appendixes include safety tips and nutrition for particular sports; common sports injuries; training tips for runners and cyclists; international associations of trainers; and sports-medicine schools, journals, and Web sites. These are somewhat less organized than the rest of the work--why nutrition for golfers but not gymnasts? Why safety tips for skiing but not tennis? Still, there's nothing comparable except the more clinical Rehabilitation of Sports Injuries (Blackwell, 2003). This is sure to be used in high-school, college, and public libraries. Susan Gooden
