5.0 out of 5 stars Good book for Orthopedic PT's, April 23, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Orthopaedic Physical Therapy Secrets, 1e (Paperback)

This is a comprehensive book on orthopedic physical therapy topics written in a unique "question and answer" format. What's great about this book is that the information presented is recent and is based on evidence-based practise and current research. This book will serve a great reference for the novice and experienced clinician

Mark R. Bussell - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Orthopaedic Physical Therapy Secrets, 1e (Paperback)

Excellent review for ortho..You can essentially use this as an effective index to direct you to weak areas that demand research and further exploration. Really a must have. Very considerate, efficient, not pompous, and direct.
