Because the book is written at a fairly basic level, the material is accessible to, and the information understandable by, students and beginners. It will be useful for trainees and junior practitioners in fields such as rehabilitation, neurology, anesthesiology, nursing, physical therapy, and other rehabilitation professions. The chapters are written by a variety of authors, primarily physicians." Reviewed by Elliot J Roth, MD (Shirley Ryan Ability Lab)
