The Bible

Professor Fung is considered the father of bioengineering and founder of biomechanics.Winner of Timoshenko and Poiseulle medals he's an Engineer that started to study physiology when his mother was diagnosed with glaucoma in 1957.I am trained as a Medical Doctor and Molecular Biologist but being the son of a Professor of Civil Engineering made me understand the importance that structural engineering has in Medicine and Biology.Now I am interested in nuclear matrix and lamins(as they are connected to aging phenomena) so I am training myself in Biomechanics, and I found that this book is the strating point.I recommend this book to all Structural Engineers,Biomedical Engineers, MDs and Cellular and Molecular Biologists that want to understand this field.

Good Continuum Mechanical Treatment of Biomechanics

I bought this book while in a course on the mechanics of complex fluids. I needed a book, dealing with blood rheology in a continuum mechanical approach. My professor suggested that I pick up this volume.I found the book to be very readable. The writing style is clear and succinct. Each chapter contains mathematical, as well as historical, treatment of the topic. Although I bought this book for the chapters on blood rheology, I continued reading through the book for my own amusement.I bought this book used, for around $40. At that price, this book was a good investment.

First experience with kindle book, very nice!

However, I think I will prefer hard copy of any academic books in future since it will be easier to have a quick browse and find specific sections.

A must-have for Biomechs

If you are into Biomechanics or want to get into it, this book is just right for you. It has all the basic information you need to understand and move up the steps into becoming what you want to become. Totally recommend this!

Excellent condition and prompt delivery

I've purchased a LOT of used textbooks online, and I'm used to seeing highlighting and notes in the margins even when the reported condition is "like new" or "excellent." Imagine my surprise and glee when this book came earlier than predicted, with no cover/binding damage and no notes inside, whatsoever! Good experience. Restored my faith.

...the entire book is printed upside down

So i received my copy and it's fine, aside from the fact that the entire thing is printed upside down. Now whenever I'm reading out of it for my class people look at me like I'm an idiot :oD I do find it funny that when you open it, it proudly says "PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" upside down on the first page.
