Review
"This is an excellent resource for medical students and residents in physical medicine and rehabilitation. It is a quick and easy reference on a majority of topics important to training in rehabilitation medicine. This edition is updated and more in depth compared to the first edition, which was published almost 10 years ago, and is one of the only pocket reference guides for practitioners in this field."
