The FIMS Team Physician Manual is the official sports medicine handbook of the International Federation of Sports Medicine (FIMS), the world's oldest sports medicine organization. Now in a fully revised and updated third edition, the book offers a complete guide to the background knowledge, practical techniques and professional skills required to become a successful medical practitioner working in sport. Written by a team of world-leading physicians from North and South America, Europe, Africa and Asia, this book is a 'must have' reference for any doctor, physical therapist, or medical professional working in sport.
This volume charts changing perceptions of sport within medical discourse, attempts by sports medicine providers to forge professional identities in response to these processes, the day-to-day experiences of deliverers of sports medicine and the reactions of recipients of that healthcare.

The first International Congress on Science and Skiing was held in Austria in January 1996. The main aim of the conference was to bring together original key research in this area and provid an essential update for those in the field. The lnk between theory and practice was also addressed, making the research more applicable for both researchers and coaches. This book is divided into five parts, each containing a group of papers that are related by theme or disciplineary approach. They are as follows: Biomechanics of Skiing; Fitness testing and Training in Skiing; Movement Control and Psychology in Skiing; Physiology of Skiing and Sociology of Skiing. The conclusions drawn from the conference represent an invaluable practical reference for sports scientists, coached, skiers and all those involved in this area.
Space physiology and space medicine are fairly recent sciences, born of the desire to launch man into space and bring him safely back again. Weightlessness and cosmic radiation - conditions which can neither be adequately simulated nor reproduced on earth - are on the other hand used as research tools for medical experiments, in particular in the fields of neurophysiology, internal medicine as well as genetics and radiation dosimetry. The newly established Austrian Society for Aerospace Medicine provides a basis for multidisciplinary approaches to spaceflight biomedical research. Diagnostic, prognostic and elective, operational and preventive measures can be fostered by activities of the Society. In October 1991 the first Austrian was launched into orbital flight and fulfilled an ambitious scientific program which was dominated by life science experiments in the areas of cardiovascular medicine, fluid-electrolyte research, neurophysiology, endocrinology, genetics, and radiation biology. The results from these experiments, presented in this book, will help to improve the management of biomedical problems in daily life.

Die Zusatzqualifikation einer sportmedizinischen Ausbildung erfreut sich bei vielen Medizinern immer größerer Beliebtheit. Dieses Buch wird diesem Trend gerecht und orientiert sich in seinem Aufbau thematisch an den Lehrinhalten des internistischen, physiologischen und pädiatrischen Ausbildungszyklus zum anerkannten Sportmediziner. Weitere Schwerpunkte des Buches sind die Durchführung und Interpretation sportmedizinischer Untersuchungstechniken, wie z.B. die Lactatleistungsdiagnostik, Funktionsdiagnostik und Substratutilisation. Zusätzlich werden spezielle Fragestellungen aus der täglichen Arbeit von Sportmedizinern wie Überbelastung, Ernährung und spezielle Umgebungsbedingungen wie Hitze oder Kälte praxisrelevant aufbereitet. Zahlreiche Abbildungen und Prüfungsfragen am Ende eines jeden Beitrages machen es besonders benutzerfreundlich. Es ist somit ein unverzichtbarer Leitfaden für alle angehenden und in Praxis oder Klinik tätigen Sportärzte.
