Summary: "Four major goals were established for this the seventh edition of the Foundations of Athletic Training.

We have adopted a writing style that promotes clinical reasoning, seeks to demonstrate the value of utilizing differential diagnosis strategies, and moves the learner toward adopting reflective practice skills.
