"Interest in the effects that physical activity and/or exercise have on a child's growth and maturation has a long history. At the beginning of the 20th century D'Arcy Thompson1 wrote his classic treatise 'On Growth and Form' suggesting that exercise wasa direct stimulus to growth. In 1964, James Tanner2 published 'The Physique of the Olympic Athlete' in which he concluded that 'the basic body structure must be present for the possibility of being an athlete to arise'. Other authors who have subsequently measured the growth and development of young athletes have agreed with this statement and concluded that body size is likely genotypic and probably reflects selection at a relatively young age for the size demands of the sport.3 However, a number of studies, especially with aesthetic sports such as gymnastics, have suggested that when heavy training regimens are started at a young age the growth and maturation of the child may be adversely affected.4 (Interested readers are referred to Chapter 30 for discussion of the morphology of youth athletes)"--

Review from previous edition [ The Oxford Textbook of Children's Sport and Exercise Medicine's] strength in particular lies in it extraordinary coverage of basic science and physiology in the sections on Exercise Science and Sports Science. The depth of information in these sections alone makes this publication a mandatory reference text to have on the bookshelf (or in ones hard drive) for clinicians and in particular for exercise scientists involved in youth sport. * Dr Damien McKay, BJSM Blog * Review from previous edition "...it is great to have all key topics located in one reference guide. It will be particularly useful for those requiring a recent review of the evidence base from which to base the updating of clinical practice or further research." * British Journal of Hospital Medicine * "...a first-rate reference source for researcher and field workers to support and challenge them in developmental pediatric exercise science and medicine." * Journal of Sports Science and Medicine * "...the editors have more than adequately achieved their objectives, succeeding in presenting complex scientific material in an accessible way for research scientists and medical practitioners...Truly a comprehensive reference work and a must have text for all scientists involved in exercise research and all clinicians caring for children and adolescents participating in physical activity, exercise, or sport." * Dr D Patel, Kalamazoo Centre for Medical Studies * The textbook is best suited to students in higher education at bachelors, masters, and doctoral levels and, outside of academia anyone working with young people in sport and exercise medicine. * Keith Tolfrey, Pediatric Exercise Science * Written by leading researchers and clinicians in paediatric sport and exercise science/ medicine, this is the most comprehensive research-driven, scientific evidence-based text available. * Keith Tolfrey, TSES Reviews * This newest edition of the Oxford Textbook of Children's Sport and Exercise Medicine reaffirms its status as the definitive resource in pediatric sports medicine care. With its up-to-date content, sound scientific foundation, and global perspective, it is an indispensable resource for anyone involved in the care of young athletes. * Robert Sallis, Sports Medicine - Open * This newest edition of the Oxford Textbook of Children's Sport and Exercise Medicine reaffirms its status as the definitive resource in pediatric sports medicine care. With its up-to-date content, sound scientific foundation, and global perspective, it is an indispensable resource for anyone involved in the care of young athletes. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner, a budding researcher, or a student eager to explore the field, this textbook is an essential companion on the journey to excellence in pediatric sports medicine. * Dr. Robert Sallis, Sports Medicine Open *
