Not what I was looking for 2009-04-06

By Pamela Steinacher (Jerseyville, IL, USA)

Orthopedic Physical Assessment Enhanced Edition

I was looking for a book that would define orthopedic abbreviations for me and would tell me the normals of orthopedic ROM tests, names and definitions of orthopedic tests used in examination, etc. This book was not it.

Comprehensive and yet never dull 2008-12-27

By Eduard G. Maat (Almere, Netherlands)

The first time I saw this book in the hands of an US exchange student, I became jealous. Everything I had learned as a fourth year pt student on diagnostic assessment was in there and more. I just had to have it. From details of observation to validity of test procedures, it is all there, even the more obscure and rarely used tests. In combination with lots of drawings (albeit not very detailed), x-rays, and pictures, everything you ever could want to know is available. And it is well written, compact but clear. It is THE book on the subject.

Great resource! 2008-12-19
