CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.5 based on 3 reviews)

helpful...  
This book is helpful in telling you all the different types of prosthetic parts (ex. knee types, foot types, suspension types, etc) and when they are best to be used. For example, if it is an above the knee amputation that the residual limb is short, use this__________ type of suspension. That is the main reason I would go to use this book.

Columbia University Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation RES  
Wonderful discussions on amputation...written with superb clarity. Would highly recommend to PM&R residents. This book is an excellent primer for PM&R residents before delving into Delisa and Braddom.

This learned and instructive manual is truly ground breaking  
Once again Dr. Bella J. May has proven that her knowledge of amputee related physical therapy is truly without peer. Dr. May shows us with precise text as well as clear illustrations the most advantageous methods of proceeding in difficult cases. Using the case study method, Dr. May indeed truly challenges the beginning as well as advanced student of this healing art.
