5.0 out of 5 stars This learned and instructive manual is truly ground breaking, February 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Amputations and Prosthetics: A Case Study Approach (Paperback)

Once again Dr. Bella J. May has proven that her knowledge of amputee related physical therapy is truly without peer. Dr. May shows us with precise text as well as clear illustrations the most advantageous methods of proceeding in difficult cases. Using the case study method, Dr. May indeed truly challenges the beginning as well as advanced student of this healing art.

By A Customer

This review is from: Amputations and Prosthetics: A Case Study Approach (Paperback)

Wonderful discussions on amputation...written with superb clarity. Would highly recommend to PM&R residents. This book is an excellent primer for PM&R residents before delving into Delisa and Braddom.

This review is from: Amputations and Prosthetics: A Case Study Approach (Paperback)

Required reading for studies in Amputations and Prosthetics. Coves a wide range though not in depth for every situation. Good text though.
