Great Price and Fast Shipping! by Triple E 5 Stars
August 18, 2009
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!

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.
