Reviews for The Musculoskeletal Practitioner's Handbook: An Essential Guide for Clinical Practice

If you work in the world of musculoskeletal (MSK) assessment and treatment, you should buy this book! Only rarely does a textbook live up to the title the authors gave it, but this really is an essential guide for clinical practice. There is so much information packed into this handily-sized book that is formatted in an easily accessible format. Indeed, it appears to contain just about all the important assessment, diagnostic and management knowledge that practitioners need in their everyday clinical work. -Nick Worth, Chair of the Society of Musculoskeletal Medicine (SOMM)
