Summary:

Physical Rehabilitation is the comprehensive, curriculum-spanning text for physical therapy students and a key reference for practicing physical therapists and other rehabilitation professionals. Focusing on the rehabilitation management of adult patients, it integrates pathophysiological, medical, and therapeutic concepts to assist in the development of appropriate examination procedures, goals, outcomes, and plan of care. This updated 5th edition: Has been revitalized with a new two-color design and more photographs, illustrations, and tables resulting in a more user-friendly presentation. Integrates current research in basic and clinical sciences with physical therapy examination and intervention. Supporting evidence-based practice, many chapters include Evidence Summary Boxes that examine current research on chapter-specific topics.
