Good book:
I'm interested in primary care sports medicine and this book is a great resource for me. Great for examinations, differentials and treatments. The really good thing about it is the end of each section shows what exercises/PT should be done and the included DVD can print this out as a patient handout. The only weak point is that the anatomy is a little sketchy so you would need to read another text to get that down.
Not just for orthopods:
This is an amazing text. It breaks down many common injuries and explains how they are treated. It is incredible.
Very Informative:
I am a College student working with a Hand and Upper extremity microsurgeon for the summer and this book is fantastic. It has allowed me to brush-up on disorders of the hand/and wrist(it has a dedicated section) and be more aware of what is happening without direct explanation from the surgeon. 5 stars to a very informative and easy to use text.
Great Resource:
This is a great, thorough, resource to have. It is an easy read and has pictures to demonstrate the activities.
