Book description

Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews, an annual publication sponsored by the American College of Sports Medicine, reviews current research concerning behavioral, biochemical, biomechanical, clinical, physiological, and reha- bilitational topics involving exercise science. The Editorial Board for this series currently consists of 13 recognized authorities who have assumed responsibility for one of the following general topics: athletic medicine, biochemistry, biomechanics, environmental physiology, epidemiology, ex­ercise physiology, gerontology, growth and development, metabolism, mo­lecular biology, physical fitness, psychology, and rehabilitation. The organi­zation of the Editorial Board should help foster the commitment of the American College of Sports Medicine to publish timely reviews in areas of broad interest to clinicians, educators, exercise scientists, and students. The goal for this Editorial Board is to provide reviews in each of these 13 areas whenever sufficient new information becomes available on topics that are likely to be of interest to the readership of Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews.
Further, the Editor selects additional topics to be developed into chapters based on current interest, timeliness, and importance to the above audi­ence. The contributors for each volume are selected by the Editorial Board members and the Editor
