Synopsis

The Roots of Clinical Reasoning: Hippocratic Foundations for the Manual ClinicianTwenty-four centuries ago, a physician of the school of Kos wrote a short manual on how to observe the sick. It taught how to read the face, the posture, the breathing, the sweat and the sleep of a patient, and how to foresee from them the course of an illness. The Book of Prognostics remains the oldest systematic guide to clinical observation, and one of the most useful.This textbook presents the complete text in Francis Adams's classic translation, section by section. The commentary is written for chiropractors, osteopathic manual practitioners, physiotherapists and manual therapists. It links each ancient sign to its modern clinical meaning and to the question every primary-contact clinician must answer: is this patient safe to treat, or in need of referral?Inside you will find:The complete Prognostics with 25 chapters of commentaryRed flags, pain referred from internal organs, and screening for serious diseaseNatural history, prognosis and communicating with patientsCase studies, 170 review questions and a self-assessment examRecording forms, referral templates and quick-reference tablesIt is written for students, practitioners and educators in the manual therapy professions.
