Summary: Easy to follow guide
Review: I was pleased with this book. It's illustrations were colorful and quite helpful. There are designated stretches and exercises for each muscle/muscle group. As a Massage Therapist, I found it to be a smart buy.

Summary: Quite outstanding
Review: This book is by far the most clear reference to skeletal muscles I have yet seen. It is basically aimed at the same market as the popular and established book by Stone and Stone; only this is better. It has color, the drawings are in a better context, and it has very usefull additional information about relevant sports, exercises and stretches for each muscle. The supportive information on muscle groups, leverage, planes of movement and so forth are first class. I teach anatomy to fitness instructors and physical therapists, and I unreservedly recommend this book to my students.
