Encyclopedia of exercise medicine in health & disease. Version eReference (online access)

Covers all aspects within the full range of modern exercise medicine of each particular scientific discipline (cancer, parasitology, etc.). Up-to-date data base on the adaptation of the human body to exercise and on the therapeutic use of exercise with up to 2,000 keywords. Includes information on methodological approaches to measuring the principle components of motor fitness, and practical aspects of their enhancement by trainings regimes as well as by nutrition and the application of drugs. Efficient searches in a user-friendly manner both for experts and newcomers: A-Z format, clear, concise language and uniform essay structure as well as extensive cross references between keywords and related articles enables. Available both in print and as a fully searchable and hyperlinked electronic online edition.
