Best sports massage book out there!

I've been a sports therapist for 26 years and have bought studied most of the books on sports massage. Pat Archer has done a tremendous job of organizing, explaining, and demonstrating the methods and rationale for sports massage. This is a great book for beginner or advanced massage therapist, but may be too advanced for non-professionals.
