Description : Key features and benefits of the book include the concise but clinically focused topics which are supported by evidence when available, and the covering of historic concepts through to the latest topics such as osseointegration and microprocessor-controlled devices. The organization by prosthetic and orthotic divisions, the anatomic and regional body section divisions, and the special topics (i.e., history, epidemiology, education, and others) allows discrete compartmentalization of vast content. This cutting-edge new textbook is ideal for entry level clinicians in training such as physical therapists, occupational therapists, physicians, prosthetists/orthotists, or others in physical rehabilitative disciplines. Additionally, the book may serve well as a desk reference for clinicians who may not be specialized in P&O care but manage patients who utilize P&O devices.
