Consumer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: AssistiveTechnologies Comment: A good book for rehabilitation practitioneers, although it can get a little too much over the place. Cook likes to explain things with tons of detail which may be good if you need a quick handbook, or bad if you need a course reader
