A great book and a great resource for anyone looking for a basic understanding of exercise physiology -- The citations are clear, the information is pretty thorough, and the illustrations and charts are easy to interpret. In addition to basic physiology, the book also includes fitness guidelines and other resources you wouldn't necessarily expect to find.
