"This edition is well laid out in a more up-to date format. It isclear and easy to read, and tables and figures are appropriate andclear, but unlike the first edition, the second edition onlycontains one photograph. A notable change is the inclusion ofreferences at the end of each chapter, which is very helpful whenconsidering further research. Although some of the references andtables seem dated, current examples are also included in mostcases." (Physiotherapy Journal, March 2010)
