Neil Armstrong is Professor of Paediatric Physiology and Director of the Children’s Health and Exercise Research Centre at the University of Exeter. He is also Vice-President and Senior Deputy Vice-Chancellor of the University of Exeter. Zusammenfassung Children and Exercise XXVII presents the latest scientific research into paediatric sport and exercise science and medicine, including contributions from a wide range of leading international experts and early career researchers. The book begins with chapters devoted to the five invited keynote lectures, followed by forty-two of the peer-reviewed presentations which are arranged into five thematic sections addressing: exercise physiology physical activity and health exercise and medicine testing and performance young athlete and sports participation. The forty-seven chapters offer a review of current topics and ongoing research in paediatric sport and exercise science and medicine. The book is therefore a key text for all researchers, lecturers, paediatricians, health professionals and students with an interest in the exercising child in health and disease.
