Before, during, and after lab
This "hands-on" learning tool is the perfect complement to the 7th Edition of Clinical Kinesiology and Anatomy!
Divided into three sections, it will help you to prepare for lab, guide you through lab activities, and serve as an after-lab review that ensures you build a solid knowledge base of kinesiology.
-
Updated, Enhanced, & Revised! Content that reflects the most current information on the science that is the foundation of kinesiology
-
Expanded! More critical-thinking type questions
- Follows the organization of Clinical Kinesiology and Anatomy, 7th Edition, chapter by chapter.
- Explores the basic structure and function of the human body, including joints, ligaments, nerves, blood vessels, bones and bony landmarks, muscle origin and insertion.
- Provides a simple and clear presentation of gait and posture.
- Includes functional anatomy questions to help you understand where muscles are placed in the body and how they work together.
- Offers photographs in the palpations sections to assist in locating muscles and landmarks.

In Memoriam
Lynn S. Lippert (1942-2021)
Thirty years and six editions ago, our friend, author, clinician, educator, and fierce advocate for breast cancer research wrote the first book ever published specifically for Physical Therapist Assistants, Clinical Kinesiology and Anatomy, for F.A. Davis. After such achievement, Lynn retired from authorship and passed away before the publication of the 7th Edition. Generations of rehabilitation practitioners and educators carry on her legacy through their dedication to education, the advancement of their field, and new editions of her groundbreaking work.
