""This book is the first of its kind on health care education (HCE) in Nigeria hence it is very unique and informative. The book will be of interest to students, scholars and others working on HCE generally in Africa and specifically those occupying administrative positions. I have found the book to be very complete, accurate and current. It is [a] repository of HCE in Nigeria and [I] will certainly set it as a reference textbook for students in the Introduction to Physiotherapy course and recommend it to colleagues."" B. O. A. Adegoke, University of Ibadan, Nigeria; extract from a book review in Journal of the Nigeria Society of Physiotherapy, Vol 20 (1). ""This book fills the void created by the lack of published materials on healthcare education in Nigeria. The evidence-based format adopted by the author and the solid empirical data provided in several of the chapters is an innovation that makes the book a must-read publication. It is well structured and can be read from chapter to chapter as presented. Alternatively, each chapter stands alone, and readers who desire it can go directly to any section. I personally find the book a delight to read … This seminal publication, written in clear prose, will appeal to a seasoned educator and broad audience. I, therefore, recommend the book to all stakeholders in healthcare education, including students and practitioners, university administrators, and heads of departments in the Colleges of Health Sciences and Teaching Hospitals in Nigeria. Policymakers, senior civil servants in the Federal Ministry of Health, and politicians serving on education and healthcare oversight committees will find the book engaging to read."" Adetoyeje Y. Oyeyemi, Professor of Physiotherapy, University of Maiduguri, Maiduguri, Nigeria ""This book provides a succinct account of HCE in Nigeria, which is a first of its kind. It would be greatly beneficial to academics, students, policymakers, administrators, healthcare professionals, and lay persons.""
