Reviews

Although the book is a great resource for any physician providing musculoskeletal care, it could also be a useful addition to the library of rehabilitation specialists (athletic training/physical therapy), as well as students or residents in sports medicine. <br>- Doody Enterprises <br> The focus on new treatments and advances in rehabilitation highlighted in this second edition distinguish it from the first edition. The unique inclusion of international perspectives is also much appreciated. <br>- Doody Enterprises
