The text included in this manuscript is of prime and great relevance to the Orthotic and Prosthetic field. Even psychological and pharmacological aspects are included. Divided into three sections it clearly and simply illustrates practically all aspects of the Orthotic and Prosthetic field. Under the sections are a variety of chapters written by experts of that specific field. However there still remain a few open spaces where imporant information were not addressed and the pictures included can definitely be reviewed and colored in. Except for these minor issues, I love my book!
This book has been a life saver for my class. It is easy to understand and read. I'm so happy the professor chose this book for our class!
