Summary: Great price and service
Comment: I was going to buy this book through my school and it was about $90.00. Amazon offered it much cheaper and for a brand new edition. It was a great price. I also received my order quickly. Thanks!
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Great Resource for Keeping Elders Healthy
Comment: This comprehensive manual provides all the detail any clinician would need to focus on geriatric rehabilitation. There are 7 units, dealing with general physiological health, psychological health and a new paradigm that focuses on concepts of wholeness and uniqueness vs. the traditional medical model. Pathokinesiology is addressed along with therapeutic interventions. Sensory losses are addressed also, a great book for the novice gerontologist or one with experience to have information at one's fingertips.
