| Editorial Review | This is an invaluable resource for all clinicians working with an orthopedic population. It covers surgical procedures, the evaluation process, treatment ideas/protocols, and current resources for further inquiry. The authors cite new and updated evidence-based treatment ideas and rehabilitation protocols as the rationale for this updated edition. The book is very much in step with these ongoing changes in orthopedic rehabilitation.- Christopher Blessing, MS, MPT, OCS, CSCS (University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro) Doody's Score: 90 - 4 Stars! |
