Product Description

Review
The combination of diagrams, colour photos, six anatomically stuctured and sub-divided main sections, self-asessment questions throughout, and use of colourised bold text to highlight key terms render this a very enjoyable and comprehensible.
Bases Dec 2006

Product Description
The fourth edition of this classic textbook incorporates all the excellent features of the previous edition as well as including more material for today's students and practitioners. The authors have updated the text which covers the whole body: upper and lower limb, head and neck, thorax and abdomen. Within each section the bones, joints, muscles, nerves, arteries, veins are described and at the end of every chapter a review/question page is included.

This book enables readers be able to identify, understand and palpate structures through an intact skin and aids the practitioner in the assessment and diagnosis of conditions using manual contact techniques, relating palpation to surface markings and anatomy.

This book is essential reading for students and practitioners of medicine, physiotherapy, osteopathy, chiropractic and sports medicine, and indeed all those for whom the accurate location and palpation of surface structures is an essential skill whether used to determine a diagnosis or apply treatment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable and simple instructions for correct palpation., 29 Aug 2002
By A Customer
Short paragraphs of text provide an easily sufficient amount of detail. They are placed alongside photos and diagrams of the surface points on the human body they are describing to provide simple identification. Important muscle attachments and joint structures are summarised for quick and effective learning.
This book can be used alone or to supplement other anatomy textbooks. Ideal for exam revision and for those of us who find other anatomy textbooks a little longwinded.

Quick and easy index - brilliant reference book for anyone studying human surface anatomy and palpation.

5.0 out of 5 stars How to get it right!, 3 Jan 2008
By N. T. Southorn "nick" (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a physio student I have found this book to be of enormous value. Palpation is one of the hardest things to be confident with but Derek Field, FCSP, has made it much easier.

The descriptions are concise and the pencil drawings that correspond to the photos are as clear as you will ever need them. The book starts with basic principals of palpation before taking you logically through the human body. No matter what your profession; palpation is a powerful assessment tool and as such you need to be prepared. I have not seen a better way of doing this that reading Mr Field's book.
