Physical Rehabilitation

Great book, extremely comprehensive. Great reference for multiple aspects of current PT/PTA practice

A Classic and a must in your shelf of PT books.

This is probably what I consider as the Bible in the realm of Physical Therapy. I have had this book ever since I was in college and it has proven to be valuable to me now that I am in my 11th year of practice as it was when I was still in my budding internship. I consider the cases found at the end of every chapter as the most helpful and insightful and for anyone hooked on evidence-based treatment strategies, this book is a must. Ms. Sullivan's work is seminal and phenomenal!

A Great Tool!

Apart from being very thorough and comprehensive, this book is also a great thing to have around. The format makes it an easy and quick reference for the PT student or begining physical therapist. It's easy-to-locate style makes it perfect for a fast question, and pictures throughout are more than helpful!
