This book describes the structural and functional asymmetries in
human body movement by providing cases and examples using
illustrations and easy-to-understand scenarios. Specifically, it
adopts an evidence-based approach to demonstrate (i) the role of
structural (e.g., bone dimensions) and functional (e.g.,
hemispheric dominance) asymmetries in the human body; (ii) the
asymmetric nature of most daily activities (e.g., gait,
mastication); (iii) the benefits of asymmetry for physical
performance; and (iv) the role of asymmetry in preventing injury.
More than just a scientific book, it bridges the gap between theory
and practice, and includes practical examples and applications. The
book appeals to academics and practitioners in the fields of
kinesiology, human movement, sports sciences, strength and
conditioning, and physiotherapy.
