Comprehensive 8 Sep 2003

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

Wow! After almost five years of parenting a child with CP, I've discovered a book that answers all my questions! This book goes into detail on everything you want to know--the medical aspects of high tone/low tone, when various surgeries are necessary and what results you can expect, the different types of AFO's and equipment, lots of other stuff. If you have a child with CP, you'll want this book. I only wish they had come out with a second edition by now. (Sept. 2003) Also includes an extensive encyclopedia. If you've been craving detailed information and answers, this is what you've been looking for.

A Complete Guide for Caregiving 15 Aug 2002

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

Dr. Miller and Dr. Bachrach have written a wonderful book. Dr. Miller was actually my daugther's ortho doctor until he took time off to help write this book. Dr. Bachrach is currently treating my daughter. I love the fact that they have made this book easy to understand and that it answers questions that you might never think to ask while you are in the clinic with your child.

A `must' for any family struggling with CP care 6 Aug 2006

By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

Co-authored by medical doctors Freeman Miller and Steven Bachrach, Cerebral Palsy: A Complete Guide For Caregiving, 2nd Edition is a `must' for any family struggling with CP care: it provides parents with answers ranging form understanding areas of involvement and basic care issues to understanding medical terminology commonly used. An A-Z encyclopedia helps define these terms, diagnoses and procedures, while discussions delve into regulations, assessments of condition, and the latest research. The wealth of details are organized logically and parents will find it easy to navigate, making it an item of choice above others.
