Lovell (director, Sports Medicine Concussion Program, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center) provides an overview of neuropsychological studies in an international range of sports, from South African rugby to equestrian sports. In addition, the book addresses methodological issues and practical considerations in studies and evaluations in the field, as well as in neuroimaging findings, biomechanics, and pathophysiology, and looks at the potential for applications of discoveries in genetics to impact the field of sports injury. Ethical and age-related issues are also treated. Coverage progresses from biomechanical, neurometabolic, and neuroanatomical aspects of concussion through current neuropsychological assessment programs around the world. The book is distributed in the US by Ashgate. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
