Good book for Orthopedic PT's
24 April 2001
Format:Paperback
This is a comprehensive book on orthopedic physical therapy topics written in a unique "question and answer" format. What's great about this book is that the information presented is recent and is based on evidence-based practise and current research. This book will serve a great reference for the novice and experienced clinician

Effective index
15 Mar 2006
Format:Paperback
Excellent review for ortho..You can essentially use this as an effective index to direct you to weak areas that demand research and further exploration. Really a must have. Very considerate, efficient, not pompous, and direct.

Awesome OCS review
17 Mar 2007
Format:Paperback
I utilized this book to prepare for the physical therapy OCS exam and what a source. It was a great text to guide your thinking and elaborates on various areas (ie Pharmocology, Ragiology, wound healing...). I could not have studied without it.
