Consumer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Wonderful Book! Comment: I bought this book in 2000(4th Edition 1997) when I was doing my PM&R residency as PGYII, rotating through outpatient clinic. At that time, as a GYII resident, I realized that I had little skill in performing musculoskeletal exams, because my internship in internal medicine earlier did not offer any training in outpatient orthopedic clinic where such skills could be taught. I needed a book from which I could learn these skills in the shortest time. With this in mind, I made the decision to purchase this book based on a senior resident's recommendation. I found this book to be well written, comprehensive, yet concise, easy to read and follow. It teaches numerous techniques used to exam bone, joint, muscle and nerve commonly used in orthopedic examination, while extremely extensive, eg, from the exam of distal interphalangeal joint of elderly to the exam of club foot in infant, but fortunately, most of the exams are presented in drawings, which make them easy to understand and to remember. There is a very will written text section, preceding the illustration of orthopedic exams of specific anatomic region, providing readers with background information on commonly seen orthopedic entities. What I like most about this book is that it avoids using lengthy descriptions; instead, it makes use of numerous simple drawings with clear illustrations, contrasted with corresponding radiographic images, which enable the readers to grasp the fundamentals and the abnormals with ease. Customer Rating: Summary: Very illustrative and generously descriptive Comment: For only $42, you get a great wealth of priceless information and artistic work. The style of British writing of disciplined English and heavily emphasized, detailed clinical examination are interesting features of this book, which are generally absent in American medical books.
The author displays his artistic skill in many hand-drawn figures, supplemented by many x-ray photographs that are also well explained, both in text and by drawings. The book has 14 chapters, each discusses specific region of the body with special emphasis on joints, bones, and nerves. The common trend in the display of the chapters is a brief introductory to its anatomy, followed by listing of its specific pathological issues, and ending with illustrated examinations. These take the form of well-labeled figures that describe the sequence of examination.
The book index is simple and informative. Also, the summaries of joint movements are rightfully placed on the front and rear inner flaps, which makes it handy to reach. The small size of 300 pages, light weight, easy to open book binding, and clear text and page design, all make this book reader-friendly. The only minor bauble is the very truncated table of biochemical values
