"Now in its third edition, this volume stands as the definitive text on occupational biomechanics - a science dealing with the physiological loads and stresses placed on the musculoskeletal system during physical work. It weaves engineering and medical information from diverse sources and provides a coherent treatment of the biomechanical principles underlying the well-designed and ergonomically sound workplace.

In this revision, the authors update the state of current knowledge in several key areas."--BOOK JACKET. "Complete with 75 new illustrations and over 200 new references, Occupational Biomechanics is an excellent one-stop reference for students and professionals in industrial engineering, product and process design, medicine, and occupational health and safety."--BOOK JACKET.
