Therapeutic Exercise: Foundations and Techniques 29 reviews
Carolyn Kisner, Lynn Allen Colby
F a Davis Co, 1990
Great for injury self-management
Had broken arm (sports injury). I felt that my Kaiser medical professionals' explanations of injury, treatment and rehabilitation were not informative enough. Got this book and was very happy because it explains things THOROUGHLY! Am making good rehab progress because I'm doing exercises that the book shows and explains (exercises that my Physical Therapist hadn't shown or given to me).

Barbara Montgomery Dossey
F A Davis Co, 2009
outstanding biography
This is unquestionably the best biography of Nightingale ever written. The author reminds us that Nightingale was one of the first statisticians -- one of the first members of the statistical society in the U.K. and for many years the only woman member. Nightingale collected and published voluminous statistics about health care (she proved that the rate of childbirth fever was lower among women ...

The Rehabilitation Specialist's Handbook7 reviews
Jules M. Rothstein, Serge H. Roy, ...
F a Davis Co, 1991
Good book with a purpose
I'm a Physical Therapist Assistant, I use this book to assist me in some of the tiny details of my job, some of which are too tiny to remember in the detail required. It helps keep me on target and allows me to spend more time treating my patients. That's a great thing! I'm not sure how helpful it would be to a non-therapist but it really does the trick for me.

Very good book
I used this book as a reference for my anatomy and physiology class in college and found it be right on target. I like the way the author explains these sometimes hard to understand topics. However, the book was not boring. If you want to really get an "A" buy the following books which are sold on amazon: Anatomy and Physiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations ...
