The best-selling "Special Tests for Orthopedic Examination" has been updated into a contemporary third edition. This concise, pocket-sized handbook is a valuable guide filled with the most current and practical clinical exam techniques used during an orthopedic examination. This third edition takes a simplistic approach to visualizing and explaining more than 150 commonly used orthopedic special tests, including 11 new and modern tests. Readers benefit from the spiral, lay-flat binding and new color elements. Clear and concise text is coupled with effective photographs clearly labeled with arrows to illustrate proper subject and clinician positioning and directional movement. Jeff G. Konin, Denise Wiksten, Jerome Isear, and Holly Brader organize "Special Tests for Orthopedic Examination, Third Edition" by regions of the body for easy reference. Positive results and special considerations are identified for each test, as they relate to the examination process. Students, clinicians, and rehabilitation professionals will enhance their ability to interpret and evaluate their findings. The features include: 11 new tests added to the existing 150, including the Dial Test, Lateral Scapular Slide Test, Crank Test, and Posterior Impingement Test; descriptive text presented in a concise manner; evidence-based references; detailed descriptions of each special test component - test positioning, action, and positive findings; black and white photographs, illustrating the proper subject and clinician positioning, with arrows used to depict proper force and direction for each test; and user-friendly spiral, lay-flat binding. Join thousands of your colleagues, fellow students, and educational leaders, and add "Special Tests for Orthopedic Examination, Third Edition" to your collection today.

Prepared by an international authority, Therapeutic Stretching: Towards a Functional Approach offers a highly accessible account of the latest information regarding the role of therapeutic stretching in the management of restricted range of movement (ROM) disorders. Richly illustrated throughout, this exciting new volume covers the physiological basis of stretching, explores its classification and examines what is normal and abnormal in terms of ROM. Chapters then explain the processes that are associated with ROM loss and recovery as well as what makes stretching effective. The experience
