"Reading this thorough and engaging text brings to mind those eminent and learned educators who have the power to demystify complex and challenging scenarios with genuine pearls of wisdom. There is a wealth of detail here that maintains a clarity of exposition while remaining thoroughly comprehensive." (Times Higher Education Supplement, May 2008)
A great undergraduate book. I liked the synoptic and systematic approach. I would possibly recommend it to those students who wish to develop better MSK skills. (Vasileios Lepesis, School of Health, University of Plymouth)
