I really do not have a review about the book. I have a friend who needed it for a college course and asked me to get it for her. I searched and amazon had it for a great price and it was here in just a couple of days. Sellers on ebay could not match the price for a hardcover textbook, they only had softcover for the same price. Thank You!

This book allows you to get a good visual understanding on how physical dysfunction is effected by injury in the brain. It is a great compliment reading to my neuro text.

Here it is. The latest update for physical disability science within occupational therapy. Whether you are a current student in need of another source, or an experienced practitioner with a desire to go back and check the basics. This updated book will have more than one topic to get you up to speed. I love it, and frequently reference it. It's also nice to know that added emphasis is placed on realistic case studys throughout the book. Enjoy!! -Derek Malayeri OTR/L, CA.
