The analysis of body composition (fat, bone and muscle) is an
important process throughout the biomedical sciences. This is the
first book to offer a clear and detailed introduction to the key
methods and techniques in body composition analysis and to explain
the importance of body composition data in the context of sport,
exercise and health.
With contributions from some of the world 's leading body
composition specialists, the book goes further than any other in
demonstrating the practical and applied value of body composition
analysis in areas such as performance sport and weight control in
clinical populations. The book pays particular attention to the
important concept of change in body composition, and includes
discussion of ethical issues in the collection, interpretation and
presentation of data, and considerations when working with special
populations.
Bridging the gap between research methods and practical
application, this book is important reading for advanced students
and practitioners working in sport and exercise science, health
science, anatomy, nutrition, physical therapy or ergonomics.
