(Applied?) Anatomy book

Burak Ilter said:

I am looking for an anatomy book which has a focus on sports. I want to
read about which body parts act together to make a jump, or run or swim,
etc, it should describe how muscles, bones, etc. work. And of course it
should not be too hard to understand for a person with non-medical
background.

Does it mean I am looking for kinesiology?

I have been looking to google, amazon but I really cannot decide. Any
help will be appreciated.

Have a look at the books on http://www.exrx.net/ in particular
http://www.exrx.net/Store/HL/FitProMusculoskeletalAnat.html (note i
haven't got this book, i have only seen it at that website so cannot
comment if it is good or not).

Also have a look at http://www.exrx.net/Lists/Directory.html on the same
site, it lists all exercise variations for particular mucsles.

If you are in Chicago, check this out
http://www.msichicago.org/bodyworlds/gallery02.html .
