  2. Details on running-injury commonalities, diagnosis, and treatment
  3. In-depth coverage of injuries most often incurred in specific types of running, such as sprinting and marathoning
  4. Rehabilitation guidelines
  5. Surgical considerations
  6. Coverage of running-injury-related medical problems
  7. Valued strategies to help patients continue running and training during recovery
  8. Injury-prevention regimens and tips that can also help trainers, coaches, and runners themselves
  9. More than 150 exceptionally informative line drawings and photographs
