My three-volume set of Bio­ mechanics has been completed. They are entitled: Biomechanics: Mechanical Properties of Living Tissues; Biodynamics: Circulation; and Biomechanics: Motion, Flow, Stress, and Growth; and this is the first volume. The mechanics prerequisite for all three volumes remains at the level of my book A First Course in Continuum Mechanics (3rd edition, Prentice-Hall, Inc. , 1993). In the decade of the 1980s the field of Biomechanics expanded tremen­ dously. New advances have been made in all fronts. Those that affect the basic understanding of the mechanical properties of living tissues are described in detail in this revision. The references are brought up to date. 606 $aSports medicine 606 $aLife sciences 606 $aBiomedical engineering 606 $aBiophysics 606 $aSports Medicine 606 $aLife Sciences 606 $aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering 606 $aBiophysics 615 0$aSports medicine. 615 0$aLife sciences. 615 0$aBiomedical engineering. 615 0$aBiophysics. 615 14$aSports Medicine. 615 24$aLife Sciences. 615 24$aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering. 615 24$aBiophysics. 676 $a611 676 $a612.014 700 $aFung$b Y.
