INformation is good but it is spread out through out the book. Lot of information is on the online links so it is a hassell to go back and forth between the book and the computer to get all the information. The online link also logs you off periodically so its annoying to keep on going back and logging in after short periods.
I agree with some of the reviews that it isn't superbly organized. I wish I had purchased the previous edition as people seem to say it is so much better- but I thought a new edition- must be better right? Anyway- I never saw the previous edition- but I will take your word for it if it's better organized. Using it to study for CHT exam. I do thoroughly enjoy the website component, however.
This book is a must have for any OT or PT who wants to be a hand therapist. This is referred to at the hand therapy "BIBLE" and for good reason. Newest edition includes the shoulder and sports rehab which are both helpful.
What a comprehensive book! This two volume set is so loaded with Upper Extremity information! You will find it hard to put down if you are a practitioner. There are nice photos with great illustrations and loaded details for all the major UE diagnosis.
This set of books is a great asset to our rehab clinic. We were able to put the information into practice as soon as we got the books. It is an exhausive resource for UE rehab.
Worth every penny!! Used this as my main reference to study for the hand examination.
I love this book--- while it's not the best for quick access reference, I love it when I'm doing intense research regarding a diagnosis. It's thorough and I feel much more confident after reading this book. I have the kindle version, which makes it easier to have with me at all times. However, it's not as easy to access the index. I have my own method of looking up diagnoses in this book, which seems to work well. I'd definitely recommend this book to anyone serious about getting into hand therapy.
This book is wonderful.It was worth every penny. This is my main resource that I use when I have a question on any hand problems. The book is very thorough and informative.It is a "must have" for any hand therapist.
