What is Physiological Assessment of Human Fitness Second Edition about?

<p>This graduate textbook explains how to measure and interpret physiological changes resulting from different types of training programs for athletics and for health improvement. The 13 contributions provide insights into direct and indirect methods for determining aerobic power, breath-by-breath pulmonary gas exchange, and anaerobic threshold. The second edition adds chapters on the use of near-infrared spectrophotometry and the potential for heart rate variability in assessment. Annotation &copy; 2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR</p> <h3>Stephen F. Figoni</h3> <p>This new book summarizes the current scientific methods for assessment of various parameters of human physical and physiological fitness, including aerobic and anaerobic power, pulmonary gas exchange, mechanical power and strength, muscle structure and function, body composition, anthropometry, joint range of motion, field testing of athletes, and measurement/statistical procedures. The authors do not state the book's purpose, but it appears to be a textbook for graduate students in the exercise sciences. Although no audience is suggested, it seems appropriate for graduate students in applied and exercise physiology, a
