Summary

"Concussions are serious and often misunderstood injuries. This important book explores concussions from every angle, including how they happen and what to do should a reader suffer one while on the field. Unlike more physically apparent injuries, concussions are diagnosed through symptoms. Knowing what concussions do to the brain and how they affect people's actions is important to staying healthy when playing high-impact sports. Readers will learn important health lessons that will help them understand how doctors treat concussions and get them back on the field safely after taking a bit hit." -- Publisher's website
