Human Body Dynamics: Classical Mechanics and Human Movement

A very good presentation of the knowledge of engineering mechanics applied to human motion. The first chapter provides a necessary and sufficient outline of the human system and the related studies. After that, basic engineering mechanics theories are discussed with elaborations and examples zeroing on human body motions. A candidate for a textbook for undergraduate course in biomechanics, and a book to be owned by engineering mechanics instructors.

This book kinda skims along the basics of human body dynamics. It worked really well for my class, a mechanical engineering elective. My profesor has his doctorate both as a mechanical engineer and as a medical doctor, He believes that this is the best book out currently but is still very lacking. Especially when dealing directly with engineering.
