Excellent EBPT book.,
By
This review is from: Guide to Evidence-Based Physical Therapy Practice (Paperback)
This is an excellent and easy to understand EBP book for physical therapists. I highly recommend this as a reference book. If you are planning to incorporate EBP in your practice, you should have this in your book shelf. It will help you understand the stats in all the journal articles and how it applies to clinical practice.

Bang for your student loan buck!,
By lcweng (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Guide to Evidence-Based Physical Therapy Practice (Paperback)
This is a great reference. I've used it for each research assignment I've had while in my DPT program. The book is very well organized. Each of the 16 chapters contains objectives, chapter terms, an introduction, core content, a chapter summary, and review questions. The index is also very comprehensive. The author's presentation of the content is excellent. She is able to covey dry content with the utmost clarity. I wouldn't recommend trying to read this book like a novel, but it acts as a very user friendly reference. Whether your goal is to the the "Grand-Pooh-Ba" of Evidence-Based Practice or to just be able to hold your own when it comes to p-values, this text is a worthwhile investment.

This review is from: Guide to Evidenced-Based Physical Therapist Practice, Second Edition (Paperback)
Great book and at a great price. Textbooks can get expensive so it was really helpful to not have to buy it at the bookstore on campus!
