5.0 out of 5 stars Good reference for Chiropractors and for National Boards, December 15, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Clinical Biomechanics of the Spine (Hardcover)

This book is listed as a book that the National Board of Chiropractic references from for some of its test questions on Part I of the Boards. This is a great book for learning the biomechanics of the spine and how the muscle interact with the bones of the spine. I also highly recommend, which is also on amazon:
National Board of Chiropractic Part I Study Guide:Key Review Questions and Answers by Patrick Leonardi
This study guide has similar kind of questions to the boards. It also showed me what to focus on, thus helping me to organize my study time much more effectively. I also used Clinical Biomechanics of the Spine as a good reference to help me study for the Spinal Anatomy portion of the Part I national boards.

Anyone trained in any field of orthopedic or mechanical health care has often heard of this reference. This is a must for any medical or anatomical library. Whether you are a chiropractor,orthopedist, neurologist, P.T., or even simply a family practice physician, you need this "biomechanics bible".
