A Doody's Core Title ESSENTIAL PURCHASE for 2011!
5 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW!
"This is the third edition of one of the chiropractic profession's most important and influential books. It is a compendium of hard scientific knowledge about all aspects of chiropractic, from the social and historical to the clinical and research oriented. It is a significant expansion from the second edition, which was published in 1992, quite some time ago. It contains five major sections: Introduction to Principles of Chiropractic, Introduction to Chiropractic Theory, Introduction to the Clinical Examination, Introduction to Specific Treatment Methods, and Introduction to Management of Specific Disorders....The book exceeds all expectations the author had for it....I consider this the most essential of all chiropractic texts, one that all chiropractors should obtain."--Doody's Review Service
Developed as the core textbook for the chiropractic student and as a professional reference, this text presents theory, philosophy, and practice principles of chiropractic. Covers both traditional and newer chiropractic techniques as well as the clinical exam and management of specific disorders.

An All-Encompassing Text on Chiropractic
16 Aug 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
Second to none, simply the gold standard of chiropractic text books. This text covers topics such as: History, Philosophy, Professional Integration, Public Health, Neurology, Biomechanics, Orthopedics, Manipulative Techniques, Rehabilitation, and more.
This should be standard reading for anyone involved in chiropractic and physical medicine.

Chiropractic is Universal
21 Jun 2006
This is an excellent book. It's a must for anyone beginning chiropractic study to know what chiropractic is all about. This book is a good reference for some portions of Chiropractic Principles for Part 2 of the National Chiropractic Boards.
Other books that I recommend for the National Boards include Handbook Clinical Care by Lawrence Wyatt
Also
National Board of Chiropractic Part II Study Guide:Key Review Questions and Answers
National Board of Chiropractic for Part III Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations
Both are by Patrick Leonardi

Perfect and Extremely Detailed
27 Jan 2008
Principles and Practices of Chiropractic aim one unusual and still strange matter of alternative medicines, but it can obviously portrait everything from Philosophy to History and matter of Ethics and World-Based Medicine Insitutes.
It perfectly (with lots of details) shows the entire side of a non-well-known Medicine, and becomes a book, in its 3rd Edition, that could be used in Palmer Universities.
