AB The  eleventh  edition  of  Essentials  of  Athletic  Injury  Management  is  written  for  those  students  interested  in  the  fitness  profession,  kinesiology,  coaching,  or  some  aspect  of  sport  science  or  physical  education.  The  majority  of  students  who  take  courses  about  the  prevention  and  management  of  injuries  that  typically  occur  in  an  athletic  population  have  little  or  no  intention  of  pursuing  athletic  training  as  a  career.  However,  it  is  also  true  that  a  large  percentage  of  those  students  who  are  taking  these  courses  are  doing  so  because  they  intend  to  pursue  careers  in  coaching,  fitness,  physical  education,  or  other  areas  related  to  exercise  and  sports  science.  For  these  individuals,  some  knowledge  and  understanding  of  the  many  aspects  of  health  care  for  both  recreational  and  competitive  athletes  is  essential  for  them  to  effectively  perform  the  associated  responsibilities  of  their  job.
