The first section of the book, General notes on biomechanics and mechanobiology, comprises from theoretical contributions to Biomechanics often providing hypothesis or rationale for a given phenomenon that experiment or clinical study cannot provide. It deals with mechanical properties of living cells and tissues, mechanobiology of fracture healing or evolution of locomotor trends in extinct terrestrial giants. The second section, Biomechanical modelling, is devoted to the rapidly growing field of biomechanical models and modelling approaches to improve our understanding about processes in human body.

Biomechanics an approach to vertebrate biology
This is a landmark book because it shows the usefulness and importance of mechanics in the analysis and understanding of animal behavior. As such it should be of interest and use to individuals working in biomechanics as well as to the vertebrate zoologist and comparative anatomist.
