Recensione

"I have taught this course [Orthotics and Prosthetics] for 15 years and this textbook is what I've been looking for all along."
-James Dexter MA, PT, University of New Mexico
good that UE prosthetics are included

good overview with enough detail for students

well written, up to date, excellent illustrations, awfully expensive!

"Very expenisive, no improvement over the old NYU series...would like more and better illustrations...the chapters on FOs & AFO are particularly lacking."
