Excellent reference book for students and therapists. Beautiful illustrations are enhanced by accompanying text which is clearly written from a purely clinical, practical perspective. Tretament techniques are an added bonus. This is a book which won't gather dust on your shelf.

I ordered this book as an additional resource to study for my clinical anatomy class. Honestly, I didn't get to use it because of lack of time, but I can tell the quality is tremendous, and the graphics are well drawn. I will use it in my future learning
