Description
Trade Review"This is a high-quality book. It is well written and organized and an important addition to the field. It covers particularly well the field of orthopedic surgery as pertaining to the female athlete. It also covers overuse injuries, concussion, and pregnancy in the female athlete. This book is dedicated to the female athlete and provides a voice to female authors. The initial attempt is a well-done success." ©Doody's Review Service, 2022, Charles Smith Peterson, MD (Tenet Health / Abrazo) Doody's Score: 5 Stars!
