Review
From the reviews: "This book was written by an orthopedic surgeon and the contents is broad, covering the etiology and overall medical management of cerebral palsy, with the longest chapter devoted to gait. … In addition, there are quizzes to test the reader’s knowledge. This is a wonderful teaching tool. … This is valuable for all clinicians … . this book will be useful for physicians who are new to the area of cerebral palsy … ." (Eileen Fowler, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 298 (20), 2007)
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism This book has almost everything ( except specific details on therapeutic techniques) that a pediatric PT working with CP needs to know. After reading the first chapter, I got hooked on reading the rest of the book. The chapters on assistive device and gait were so intensively written. The best part, I believe, is the CD companion, with tons of case studies, pictures, and videos, that augments learning.
