Recenzii
"...an extremely well-written and thought-provoking book that explains more complex issues in sports performance, rehabilitation, injury prevention, and neurocognition in a very readable format...While the book is geared toward individuals in an academic setting, it can be useful for individuals in a variety of fields such as kinesiology, physical therapy, rehabilitation, neuropsychology, and sports performance." --PsycCRITIQUES
