<P>If readers have ever wondered how soccer players "bend it like Beckham," they'll enjoy this unique look at the science behind the world's most popular sport. Detailed text, fact boxes, sidebars, and diagrams help readers understand the many ways scientific concepts are applied on the soccer field. Readers also learn how scientific knowledge is put to use along with the other areas of STEM – technology, engineering, and math – to help soccer players train, avoid injury, and heal more quickly if they do get hurt. Full-color photographs place readers in the middle of the action on the pitch.</P>
