Suggestions for a good biomechanics/kinesiology text for physiotherapy students.

Hey guys,

Anyone got any recommendations for a text book that covers biomechanics/kinesiology for physiotherapy?

Most universities will have online reading lists which the public can access. For example, you can look at Northumbria's first year 'Principles of Muscoloskeletal Physiotherapy' module reading list here.

I think it would be worthwhile reading specialist physiotherapy books alongside general physiology, and they do list a few, and specialist molecular biology books so you see the whole picture; this is particularly helpful when learning how and why things go wrong (i.e. it can be something as small as one wrong codon in RNA which causes a disease).
