This study looks at the history of football injuries by decade and critically analyzes important circumstances in football relating to fatalities and catastrophic injuries (equipment, rules, coaching, medical care, etc.). Attention is also given to the history of brain and spinal injuries as well as heart-related and heat stroke fatalities and how their detection and treatment has changed during the past 75 years. A chapter discusses the history of NOCSAE and its effect on helmet standards and a chapter by Herb Appenzeller discusses risk management in football programs."; 9.0 X 6.0 X 0.7 inches; 286 pages .

About Dr. Bookman - All Books Tightly Packaged in Cardboard
We have an eclectic array of used and out of print books for you in our inventory. Service is key to our relationship with you. You get \"Old School\" service with Dr. Bookman. We can\'t look at each other in the eye, shake each others hand, or walk into the shop the next day if we\'re disatisfied. I understand that vulnerability. You are purchasing a product sight unseen. That means I must be honest with you about exactly what you are buying. You might find my descriptions more detailed than most others, but when purchasing online, I want you to know exactly what you\'re buying. I don\'t want you to feel surprised when you open the box. And by the way, almost all of our books are shipped in cardboard packaging designed just for books. That means you get it the way it left here.
