comments about Diagnosis and Treatment of Movement Impairment
Syndromes by Shirley Sahrmann:
"Having harrassed
the author for close to four years I am pleased to say that
this text represents what might best described an a "hinge
in history". "
"Been
waiting for a text from the author for over 10 years. Definitely
a text for someone well versed in the anatomy and mechaincs
of the musculoskeletal system. This text is written in clear
categories and deals with problems in three general areas.
It takes effort and analytic thinking to understand the myriad
of motions listed in the text."
