Deepen students’ knowledge and understanding of joint anatomy for the assessment of injuries.
Created for athletic training (AT) students, Joint Anatomy for Athletic Training is a clinical companion to Trail Guide to the Body, diving deep into the structure of joints and their related components—ligaments, tendons, bursae, and surrounding soft tissue.
This eTextbook follows, chapter by chapter, the body regions detailed in Trail Guide to the Body, providing succinct descriptions of the joints most commonly treated by ATs.

Joint Anatomy for Athletic Training enhances AT students’ anatomical understanding, confidence, and retention with:
- Over 190 new detailed joint anatomy illustrations and 41 new movement videos
- Clinically relevant scenarios and interactive examples
- Chapter-opening questions that act as a bridge between what students already know and what they are about to learn
- Hyperlinked definitions and key concepts
- “Connecting the Dots” encourages students to reflect on clinical examples of the concepts they have just read about
- Anchoring Brain Builders Quizzes for students to test what they’ve learned
- “Linking It All Together” at the end of each chapter revisits chapter-opening questions to inspire deeper classroom discussion
