Synopsis

"This is a unique book, not because of its content, but because its format is designed to be quick and easily accessible to practitioners and trainees. The numerous and very well-constructed tables and figures are genuine stand-out features of this book." ---Doody's Review Service, 4 stars

New edition of the premier quick reference to conducting thorough musculoskeletal and neuromuscular examinations, now in full color with video.

Comprehensive and concise, the 3-Minute Musculoskeletal and Peripheral Nerve Exam, Second Edition, is a lifeline for beginning learners and a trusted point-of-care reference for seasoned practitioners.
