Das Knochenmarködem-Syndrom: Fortschritte in Diagnose und Therapie (essentials)
by Reiner BartlMit Einführung der Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) als bildgebende Methode für die klinische Routine in den 80er Jahren kann erstmals das Knochenmarködem (KMÖ) eindeutig diagnostiziert werden. Der lokale Nachweis eines KMÖ im Rahmen von orthopädischen, sportmedizinischen und unfallchirurgischen Erkrankungen führte zum Begriff des „Knochenmarködem-Syndroms“ (KMÖS).

Während früher eine Anbohrung des ödematösen Bezirks als „Mittel der Wahl“ galt, stehen heute effektive Medikamente, biophysikalische Verfahren und Kombinationstherapien zur Verfügung, die zu einer Ausheilung des Ödems führen.

Fatigue in Sport and Exercise
by Shaun PhillipsFatigue is an important concern for athletes at all levels, recreational sport and exercise participants, athletic coaches, personal trainers, and fitness professionals. The study of fatigue is also important for students of the sport, exercise, and health sciences, as it enables a deeper understanding of fundamental physical function and the limitations behind human performance. There remains considerable debate about the definition of fatigue, what causes it, its impact during different forms of sport and exercise, and the multitude of factors that can influence the nature and severity of fatigue. The vast body of literature in these areas can make it challenging to understand what we know and what we still need to understand about fatigue in sport and exercise. The second edition of this book presents a fully revised and updated overview of the contemporary research evidence into sport and exercise fatigue. The book examines the latest thinking into how we conceptualise fatigue, as well as how we measure it. The fundamental science of fatigue is introduced, focussing predominantly on physiological aspects of energy depletion, metabolic acidosis, environmental challenges, electrolytes and minerals, and the perception of fatigue as it relates to mental fatigue and the central regulation of sport and exercise performance. Each chapter includes real case studies from sport and exercise, as well as useful features to aid learning and understanding such as definitions of key terms, guides to further reading, and discussion questions. Fatigue in Sport and Exercise, Second Edition is an invaluable companion for any degree-level course in sport and exercise science, fitness and training, or strength and conditioning.

Skill in Sport: The Attainment of Proficiency (Routledge Revivals)
by B. KnappOriginally published in 1963, Skill in Sport was addressed to students and teachers of Physical Education, to coaches interested in the more theoretical aspects of their work, and to all individuals who wished to find out the best ways to acquire skill in any particular game or sport. Psychologists too may have found many of the examples and much of the discussion of interest to them.Practical issues are dealt with first and then the underlying theories are considered. Individual differences, teaching methods, motivation, specialization, differences between games and activities such as swimming and shot-putting, are among the problems which are discussed against a background of experimental evidence and personal experience. Many references are cited and many practical examples are given. The book sets out to stimulate discussion, more precise observation and research and it provides a sound basis on which to build a more complete understanding of skill and its attainment.Today it can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.
Football in its Place: An Environmental Psychology of Football Grounds (Psychology Revivals)
by David Canter David L. Uzzell Miriam ComberIn the late 1980s football was in a state of crisis. Falling attendances and a genuine unease among potential spectators about going to live football matches suggested that, without radical changes, the game would soon become a minority spectator sport. Originally published in 1989, reissued now with a new preface, Football in its Place presented a new approach to the problem that concentrates on the spectators’ experience of football and on the places where it is played.This approach recognizes four themes, which relate directly to the spectators’ experience: spectator comfort; the need for effective crowd control; the problems of coping in emergencies; and variations in club cultures. A special chapter on football-related violence shows how this needs to be understood in relation to all of these themes and not treated as a problem in isolation. This was said to be the only way to reverse the spiral that had given rise to hooliganism.Finally, the authors discuss the options for the future on football. They emphasize that football is a recreational activity whose management should be treated as part of the leisure industry. All aspects of the game, its traditions, club variations and heritage, needed to be harnessed if football was again to be Britain’s most popular spectator sport. Today we can see the impact that the points made in this book have contributed to how we continue to watch and enjoy football now.
