Good book by L. A. Forbes (Roanoke, Virginia)

4 Stars

I'm interested in primary care sports medicine and this book is a great resource for me. Great for examinations, differentials and treatments. The really good thing about it is the end of each section shows what exercises/PT should be done and the included DVD can print this out as a patient handout. The only weak point is that the anatomy is a little sketchy so you would need to read another text to get that down.

I am a College student working with a Hand and Upper extremity microsurgeon for the summer and this book is fantastic. It has allowed me to brush-up on disorders of the hand/and wrist(it has a dedicated section) and be more aware of what is happening without direct explanation from the surgeon. 5 stars to a very informative and easy to use text.

I am satisfied with the book. I was a little disapointed that it did not have color pictures. However for the new practitioner it is very thorough and has the basics.
