Dynatomy: dynamic human anatomy.
Author: Whiting, William C & Stuart Rugg Published: 2006 Dynatomy brings to life the wonders of human movement and applied anatomy. The book is written for students of human performance who have completed an introductory human anatomy course and need a strong text in functional anatomy. The entertaining and easy-to-understand text considers fundamental movements together with selected exercise and sports movements. Part I presents a concise overview of the anatomical foundations of movement and the essential requirements for muscular control. Part II examines dynamic movements and basic mechanics, muscular function, fundamental movements, and specialised movements. Included with the book is a CD-ROM designed to help students thoroughly review components of structural anatomy, with a complete high-resolution 3D model of the human musculature. The model can be rotated and allows for 11 layers of anatomy to be visually removed, from muscles down to bones. It also includes 34 animations, each of which can be viewed from four different angles, showing clinical muscle function. |
