Review from previous edition [The Oxford Textbook of Children's Sport and Exercise Medicine's] strength in particular lies in it extraordinary coverage of basic science and physiology in the sections on Exercise Science and Sports Science. The depth of information in these sections alone makes this publication a mandatory reference text to have on the bookshelf (or in ones hard drive) for clinicians and in particular for exercise scientists involved in youth sport. * Dr Damien McKay, BJSM Blog *
Review from previous edition "...it is great to have all key topics located in one reference guide. It will be particularly useful for those requiring a recent review of the evidence base from which to base the updating of clinical practice or further research." * British Journal of Hospital Medicine *
"...a first-rate reference source for researcher and field workers to support and challenge them in developmental pediatric exercise science and medicine." * Journal of Sports Science and Medicine *
"...the editors have more than adequately achieved their objectives, succeeding in presenting complex scientific material in an accessible way for research scientists and medical practitioners...Truly a comprehensive reference work and a must have text for all scientists involved in exercise research and all clinicians caring for children and adolescents participating in physical activity, exercise, or sport." * Dr D Patel, Kalamazoo Centre for Medical Studies *
The textbook is best suited to students in higher education at bachelors, masters, and doctoral levels and, outside of academia anyone working with young people in sport and exercise medicine. * Keith Tolfrey, Pediatric Exercise Science *
Written by leading researchers and clinicians in paediatric sport and exercise science/ medicine, this is the most comprehensive research-driven, scientific evidence-based text available. * Keith Tolfrey, TSES Reviews *
