Recensione

"This is an excellent resource with timely relevance to the continuously evolving field of orthopedic medicine. It is unique as a reference dedicated solely to the terminology of orthopedics. I would have used this all the time when I was a physical therapy student. Now, as a seasoned practitioner, I will make room for this on my clinic bookshelf." - Charles R. Wolfe III, PT, DPT, DAC (U.S. HealthWorks Medical Group, Inc.) Doody's Score: 99 - 5 Stars! "This resource can guide individuals as they perform literature reviews, systematic reviews of that literature, meta-analyses, and other clinical investigations in the field of orthopaedics. This tool is straight-forward, easy to read, and comprehensive. It will continue to serve as the go-to reference for individuals needing to access orthopaedic information to serve their individual audiences." Foreword by: Marc F. Swiontkowski,Professor, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Minnesota, Feb 2015
