Review
Teaching occupational therapy students to evaluate clients using manual muscle testing and goniometry, this manual emphasizes the need to combine procedural knowledge of functional observation and gross and isolated muscle testing with flexibility and higher clinical reasoning. Some 350 black and white photos detail manual muscle testing step by step. The authors teach occupational therapy at Quinnipiac University.

This manual is an easy to follow guide for the evaluation of range of motion and muscle strength. This spiral bound book contains three chapters covering goniometry, gross manual muscle testing, and isolated manual muscle testing and appendixes for muscle tables, range of motion tables, and sample evaluation forms.
The purpose is to provide the students preparing to enter a clinical setting with formal instruction techniques. The content and structure is user friendly. This book offers functional examples of muscle movements to be observed by the students to relate in a clinical setting. The book designates icons that are used throughout the book, which guide the students through specific areas for caution and ASHT guidelines.
This is a useful book for the novice student as well as a quick review for the practicing therapist.
