Introduction -- The whole body level -- Describing motion: linear kinematics in one dimension and one directions -- Describing motion: linear kinematics in one dimension and two dimensions -- Describing motion: linear kinematics in two dimensions -- -- Describing motion: angular kinematics -- Describing motion: inertia and momentum -- Explaining motion I: linear kinetics -- Explaining motion II: angular kinetics -- Work-energy -- Collisions, impacts, and the conservation laws -- Tissue level -- Mechanics of the human frame -- Muscle-tendon mechanics -- Joint level -- Single-joint concepts -- Lower extremity biomechanics -- Biomechanics of the axial skeleton -- Upper extremity biomechanics -- Limb level -- Multijoint concepts -- Integrating the level -- Putting it all together.

Summary: "The second edition of biomechanics a case-based approach emphasizes the comprehension, relation, and application of the core concepts of biomechanics through the use of problem-based learning strategies. The author utilizes a student centered approach by developing a conversational writing style lying new concepts to everyday experiences, and emphasizing concepts over computation. A wide variety of pedagogical features aid this approach with section questions, competency checks, and various boxed features serving to reinforce the content. Biomechanics a cased-based approach is organized into IS lessons that cover the three levels of biomechanical analysis whole body, joint, and tissue. Rather than moving from one level to the next, the author deploys a “whole-part-whole” organization in which mechanics principles are described at the whole-body level, followed by relevant discussion of the basic material mechanics of biological tissues, and unique properties of the muscle-tendon complex. The muscle-tendon complex is then put into a joint system, before the mechanics of multi-joint systems are introduced. The three levels are then integrated in the final lesson."--Back cover
