Review

"Excellent written for physiotherapists." "Jane Lockwood, Course Leader, Director of Physiotherapy, University of Nottingham"
text, clearly written....I liked this book and could recommend it as a useful main text to students of physiotherapy. There is also enough additional material for the interested postgraduate student and clinicians involved in sports and orthopaedic medicine."British Journal of Sports Medicine
this paperback Third Edition of Anatomy and Human Movement, the authors have further improved this now well established book...is a useful reference for any professional who is dealing with the musculoskeletal system and human movement."Physiotherapy in Sport
fourth edition has become more compact and easier to handle. An important and very useful tool, the book is dedicated to the student and practitioner interested in musculoskeletal anatomy and human movement."Erik Cattrysse, Manual Therapy, vol 7, November 2002
book is very well stuctured, organised and easy to read. The attention to detail is second to none. The changed layout changed to layout of text and illustrations aids the reader/learner."" "Mary Boyd", Physiotherapy Ireland
