This book is great because it has information about fitness, stretching and strengthening, and sports medicine (injury prevention and treaatment) all in one volume. If you're a weekend warrior kind of athlete like me and have problems like tendinitis of the rotator cuff, plantar fascitis, tennis elbow, and so on, there is excellent information for dealing with it. I've been following the stretching and training recommendations, which have helped especially. Not to mention taking it easy and not overdoing it. I also like the side bars about Olympic athletes and how they train and how they deal with injuries. It's a great concept.
Great coffee table(conversation) book.
