Synopsis
Back pain is a common condition that affects a large percentage of the population, creating a significant impact on individual health and employment, as well as on the workload of manual therapy practitioners and orthopedic surgeons. This practical text, written by four key researchers in the field, offers an effective approach to the management and treatment of back pain based on applications of biomechanics. By linking the clinical anatomy of the spine to biomechanics principles, it provides a bridge between anatomy and practical applications. This highly illustrated, up-to-date book is essential reading for anyone involved in the care and treatment of patients with back pain, as well as for those studying its causes and methods of prevention.

Review
"This is a comprehensive, structured and well referenced textbook which has been written by established researchers in the speciality of spinal biomechanics. It would be appropriate reading predominantly for post graduate students studying physiotherapy, orthopaedics and ergonimics. It would also be of value for the final year undergraduate students in anatomy and physiotherapy." Sonia Philips, Senior Lecturer, Physiotherapy
book has made me look again at my back-pain patients. This book is a reminder of the standards to which we should all aspire, and our patients expect."Newsletter of the Irish Society of Orthopaedic Medicine
found this book very difficult to put down once I had started it and I think it is an essential purchase for physiotherapy departments and for individuals who treat people with back pain." Sue Mickleburgh MCSP
interest to any practitioner seeking an authoritative, contemporary presentation of the mechanics of back pain. Highly recommended." Robert Moran, BsSc, MHSc(Osteo)
forte is its comprehensive, eveidence based and clinically orientated analysis of the interactions between functional anatomy, functional loading and spinal pathology. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the biomechanical, and a broad perspective on all other contributing factors. It would be a valuable and concise reference to all dealing with back pain on a day-to-day basis."" Howard M. Turner, Physical Therapy in Sport
book focuses, very strongly, on the biomechanics of the lumbar spine, and draws very hevily on in-vitro work on isolated lumbar motion segments subjected to forces of different kinds in the laboratory. This is an excellent book that should have a long shelf life and should be read by all ergonomists working in the areas of back pain or occupational biomechanics."" Robert Bridger, Ergonomics, February 2004
