The writing style lends itself to rehabilitation professionals who are novices in the area of business management and who are just beginning to explore the conceptual ideal of developing a private practice. Also contained in the book are many tables in each chapter and appendices that provide sample forms the reader can use to implement each step in the creation and development of a rehabilitation practice. Business Fundamentals for the Rehabilitation Professional is a worthwhile read for any rehabilitation professional who is considering opening a private practice. It will provide the basic knowledge to determine if the development of a private practice is a good move and will provide a basic framework to guide the decision matrix required to develop and implement a viable and sustainable business endeavor."" — John M. Cheeks, PT, DPT, DHS, MSG, CSST, CEA, School of Allied Health, Department of Physical Therapy, Louisiana State University, Laurel, MS, Activities, Adaptation, & Aging ""I recommend this book for any rehab professional who is even thinking about starting a business practice.
