"Dynatomy brings to life the wonders of human movement and applied anatomy by emphasizing dynamic muscular motions rather than structural anatomy. The book includes a companion DVD-ROM, Essentials of Interactive Functional Anatomy, which provides an engaging review of structural anatomy."--Publisher's website.
