5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable, October 29, 2000

Shorty "jillshari" (Owings Mills, MD USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Measurement of Joint Motion: A Guide to Goniometry (Spiral-bound)

I got an earlier edition of this book in Physical Therapy school and it was invaluable in teaching the finer points of goniometry. I constantly used it as a source of information, until I became comfortable with measuring joint range of motion. Since I am now working in the inpatient arena, I mostly repeatedly measure knees, but refer back to it when I need to brush up on another joint. It has clear pictures and overall is a great reference book for anyone who has to evaluate joint ranges of motion.

This review is from: Measurement of Joint Motion: A Guide to Goniometry (4th edition) (MEASUREMENT OF JOINT MOTION: A GDE TO GONIOMETRY) (Spiral-bound)

This book is a great guide to goniometry. I especially love the Appendix that has all the normal values. It's a must have for anyone starting out in physical therapy.

This review is from: Measurement of Joint Motion: A Guide to Goniometry 3rd Edition (Spiral-bound)

This is an excellent as easily describes how to do ROM of all sorts of joints. A great book for a student and practitioner that needs to look up the more obscure joints. It has tables as well for normal ROM. You can't go wrong with this one.
