This reference work brings together the biology, mechanics, neurophysiology and pathophysiology of diseased joints, illustrates available physiologically-based treatments for osteoarthrosis and explains how and when to use them.;Highlighting the most up-to-date biomechanical principles, Mechanics of Human Joints: discusses the functional anatomy of joints; relates the neurophysiology of joints to ligamentous reconstruction; elucidates the pathophysiology of osteoarthrosis; summarizes the latest information on muscle physiology and electromyography; examines the effect of vibration and impulsive loading on joint pathology; and explicates the principles of prosthetic joint replacement.;Part 1 Physiology of joints: biology of joints, Peter A. Simkin. Part 2 Mechanics: the anatomy of joints related to function, Laurence M. Adams; the mechanics of gait, Jacquelin Perry; synovial fluid, Pierre Geborek and Frank A.
