Lynn Lippert adds a greater emphasis on clinical insights and functional connections to her easy-to-understand, well-organized 4th edition text. This accurate and thoughtfully updated edition is what should be at the heart of the clinical kinesiology course to help students analyze the mobility of specific joints in various activities of daily living.

1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money, March 23, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Clinical Kinesiology for Physical Therapist Assistants (Paperback)

This book was required as supporting material for an OT program. This book is full of mistakes and the diagrams are very hard to follow, misleading, and/or mislabeled. Truly a waste of money, save your money and check it out from the school library and photocopy the darn thing if you have to use it. Useless is an understatement.

1.0 out of 5 stars Clinical Kinesiology -- Save Your Money!, October 28, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Clinical Kinesiology for Physical Therapist Assistants (Paperback)

This text book is an abomination. It is riddled with mistakes, often incomprehensible in its explanations, and fairly useless as a reference book. Its schematics and diagrams are consistently mislabeled and confusing. The salient points of each chapter are either obscured or misguided. Avoid this mess; don't waste your time or your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Never again will I use this for a textbook, May 27, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Clinical Kinesiology for Physical Therapist Assistants (Paperback)

I made the mistake of selecting this book to teach functional anatomy and kinesiology. There are numerous mistakes and emphasis in the text is on information that is not pertinent for PTAs. The author neglects other information that is essential for PTA students. I ended up trashing the book midway through the semester and creating my own "text". I am just sorry my students paid hard-earnded money for this text that they will never use as a reference.
Reviews from students were summarized as a "D".
