Most Detailed Book on Neueoanatomy,
By Kristi Puente (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Right in the Middle: Selective Trunk Activity in the Treatment of Adult Hemiplegia (Paperback)
This book goes into detail on sensory integration, sensory perception, and tone. It is a perfect book for those who want to learn the fundamentals of neuroanatomy. It reads smooth and is very interesting, not like some books that are complicating and boring.
4.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Right in the Middle: Selective Trunk Activity in the Treatment of Adult Hemiplegia (Paperback)
This book was a nice refresher as it has been awhile since I treated my last stroke patient. It certainly helped to brush away the cobwebs. I would definitely recommend it as the information was great!
