4.0 out of 5 stars Pediatric Physical Therapy, September 20, 2000
By Angelique Hunter, P.T. (Naperville, IL United States) - See all my reviews
An excellent reference book for physical therapists beginning to practice in the area of pediatrics. Good comprehensive general information on a variety of pediatric disabilities and disorders, as well as available orthotics. Good reviews of current assessment tests used, including information on interpretation, reliability and validity. Not recommended for the physical therapist who already has expertise in the pediatric field, content appears to be geared for those just entering the specialty field.
