WOW! Get a copy of this for your school/college/university/work bag - By: R. Canfield, 13 Feb 2008 
Now at university, I have used a version of this book since i first found it when doing A-level PE. Then i was using the first edition, when i prgoressed onto a degreein Sports Studies I started using the second edition & now as a student can't afford this newer version of a fantastic resource. This book gives a good clear understandable description of almost everything you could want to know within the field of sports science & medicine. A great book to go to first for any study of a specific topic, or even just to have next to you when ready, nay, sifting through a thick text book. A great 'primary' secondary research text. Recommended on the highest level. Even betterin hardback.
A Vital Book For Sports Science Students!!! - By: Gordz, 19 Jan 2008 This dictionary is just what I've been looking for! For essays & assignments this has been a life saver for checking up definitions of sports science related words & phrases.
I've found the Oxford Dictionary of Sports & Medicine to be the best book i've ever bought for my degree! But, this book will not only be great for me during my university years, but also would be a great buy to use for GCSE & A-levels as it's not too complicated & explains everything you'd ever need to know!
I don't know what i'd do without this book to be honest! It definitly beats wikipedia & google when searching for words & phrases related to Sports Science hands down!
I would recommend this book to virtually anyone who is doing a sports related degree or course at university, college or school!
Excellent Book for Sports Science Lecturers - By: , 15 Jan 2002 
This dictionary contains almost every sports science, anatomy/physiology, biomechanic,, injuries description, & pschological term as related to sports medicine/science. It is very comprehensive & is a must for any student or teacher's bookshelf. A dictionary that will not be datedin a few years. Great investment.
