<p>Review\n"Mastering Muscles and Movement outshines every other learning guide I have seen, and it is the ONLY book offering a system that maximizes the learning potential for every student of anatomy, kinesiology, massage therapy, physical therapy, etc. The layout, images, muscle groupings, and tables included in the system are pure genius. The author provides helpful online learning resources that add power and efficiency to the system. The clear and concise images allow for quick referencing of material. I'm impressed with the accuracy and level of detail included on innervation, attachment sites, actions, joints, and ligaments. There is so much information packed into this gem of a book! Additionally, it includes sections on the muscles of the face and jaw as well as the pelvic floor, two areas that are often overlooked in kinesiology textbooks. Mastering Muscles and Movement is truly in a class of its own and it is my first choice for instructing kinesiology courses and as a reference guide in my clinical practice." - Wren McLaughlin, PT, DPT, PRC, WCS, MS\n"Mastering Muscles & Movement presents an innovative and practical learning tool for students of Anatomy and Kinesiology. It is the first book that I have seen that actually demonstrates the steps to successful memorization and information retention. It gives you the sense that you are looking through the notes of the best student in class and learning their secret code. The simple, quick access to detailed content and the excellent selection of study tools will make this a book that students reach for first." - Ellen K. Geary MS, LAc\n"Mastering Muscles & Movement makes human anatomy and kinesiology highly accessible to the reader. The information is presented in a format that accelerates the learning process and creates a long-term functional memory for the student. Accompanied with the study aids on the companion website, Mastering Muscles & Movement makes learning fun and simple. I highly recommend this book for undergraduate to post-graduate students as well as practitioners in the field of healing arts and musculoskeletal medicine." - Avilio Halme, MPT\nThis richly illustrated book provides a system for understanding and memorizing musculoskeletal anatomy and kinesiology. While there are many books available that cover the subject, Mastering Muscles & Movement presents a fresh approach that is designed to leverage the natural ways the brain observes, learns, and recalls this type of information. Rather than employing the usual one-muscle-per-page format, this book treats groups of muscles as “movement families” and presents them in a way that provides a rich visual, verbal, and relational learning environment.\nThe result is a truly brain-friendly experience for the student. The myriad details and interrelationships are easily recognized in simple and natural ways by the innovative arrangement of the muscle information on each page and from page-to-page. The reader comfortably stays aware of the bigger picture while studying any one item, easily compares and contrasts related features and facts, and is enabled to structure study time to play to strengths or to eliminate weaknesses.\nOver 170 muscles are covered, as well as all bones, bony landmarks, joints, ligaments, and other related structures. Anatomy and kinesiology concepts and terminology are clearly presented. Detailed yet friendly diagrams employ over 600 illustrations to provide accurate renditions that leverage the natural ways that the brain understands and learns this multifaceted body of knowledge.</p>
