Elsevier - Health Sciences Division Dorfman and Czerniaks Bone Tumors
Book SynopsisTrade Review"This is an excellent standalone reference for neoplastic bone pathology. It is comprehensive, but the text is clear and easy to understand. It excels in incorporating the genomic discoveries when describing each tumor entity and frequently illustrates genetic findings with helpful diagrams. Overall, this is an excellent contribution to the field of bone pathology and it will make a wonderful comprehensive reference in an institutional, departmental, or personal library." Reviewed by Kyle D Perry, MD (University of Manitoba College of Medicine) Doody's Score: 98 - 5 Stars "I unreservedly recommend this book for anyone serious about bone pathology. Although there are other references that are adequate for day-to-day use, Dorfman and Czerniak's Bone Tumors is the essential reference for the serious practitioner and belongs on the desk of anyone who signs out bone pathology." Reviewed by Andrea T. Deyrup, M.D., Ph.D. (Department of Pathology, Duke University Medical Center) "The second edition is as lavishly and beautifully illustrated as the first edition with the text as cogent as the first edition and more informative in content because of the inclusion on the growing influence (since the previous edition) of molecular pathology in the diagnosis and treatment of skeletal tumors. The high quality of illustrations, comprehensive epidemiology of bone tumors and the practical multi-disciplinary approach that pervades the text makes it of as much value to the orthopedic surgeon and radiologist, as it would the pathologist, confronted with bone tumors and tumor like lesions, be they on a regular or sporadic basis." Reviewed by Murali Sundaram, MD, FRCR (Cleveland Clinic) "In my opinion this book is without doubt the most comprehensive, up to date and beautifully illustrated text book available on bone tumours. I recommend it unreservedly to all pathology departments and it is an absolute must for those practicing any form of orthopaedic pathology." Reviewed by: S.Fiona Bonar, MB.

Book SynopsisProvides a review of the basic science information concerning the tissues of the musculoskeletal system impacted by injury or disease, as well as the guiding principles upon which rehabilitation interventions are based. This volume divides information into two sections: scientific foundations and principles of intervention.Trade Review"I have been practicing for 20 years and have never written to anyone I didn't know regarding a publication. However, I just wanted to thank you and congratulate you for your recent publication by Elsevier. I received the book on Friday and don't know which chapter to read next. It should be a mandatory text for physical therapy schools because of how it covers the fundamentals and basics. It is sometimes difficult to provide cutting edge material in books because of the publishing process, but you have done a great job. I plan on exposing the text to all students, physicians and health care professionals who cross my path. Since my last few years of practice have focused on pediatric sports medicine and childhood obesity, I will take the information and apply it accordingly to the growing and developing body. Thanks again for your wonderful contribution." "I would recommend this book as essential for fellow physiotherapists who are either near the completion of their course or recently qualified, as well as people studying similar subjects. I chose this book as a companion for the many textbooks I have which give the methodology of assessment techniques but do not cover the theory in depth. The text is easy to read yet still very comprehensive and summary boxes throughout the text provide the key points in a clear, concise way....The content covers everything you could want when working within the field of musculoskeletal rehabilitation. It includes a chapter on psychology, effects of aging, nerves and neurophysiology, pharmacology etc as well as the topics you would expect. It is not a quick reference textbook but if you need a through understanding of the background behind musculoskeletal rehab it is perfect."

Rowman & Littlefield Fix My Shoulder
Book SynopsisThe shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body. It enjoys an amazing range of motion; it can rotate 360 degrees and can extend upward, sideways, across the body, outward, inward, every which way. That makes it the most useful joint we have, and, not surprisingly, we use it the most. Lifting, pushing, pulling, throwing, catching, hugging: the shoulder experiences more motion than any other joint. So it is perhaps not surprising that, sooner or later, it becomes overtaxedfatigued. After all, as with anything, if you keep applying the same pressure over and over, the strength and stability of the structure being pressured will wear down. That's what happens to the shoulder, and when it does, it's not only painful; it can also stop you in your tracks, limiting your ability to do even simple things you're used to doing.The truth is that if you've never felt any kind of shoulder pain whatsoever, the chances are good that as you grow older, you will. Our bodies tend to lose muscle and boneTable of ContentsVery Important Message Acknowledgements Introduction 1: The Nuts and Bolts of the Shoulder 2: Of Rotator Cuffs, Injuries, and Words Ending in ‘-Itis’ 3: The Pain 4: The Fix 5: Fix Your Posture Too 6: For Workout Warriors, Moves to Avoid 7: Your Super Shoulder Bibliography

Cornell University Press Watch Your Back
Book SynopsisOver the past twenty years, treatment of back pain has become ever more expensive and intensive. Use of MRI scans, narcotic painkillers, injections, and invasive spine surgery have all grown by several hundred percent. In some areas of medicine, newer treatments have improved quality and duration of life, but as back pain is treated more aggressively, annual surveys of people with back pain report steadily worse impairments. In Watch Your Back!, Richard A. Deyo, MD, proposes an approach to managing back pain, which most adults in the United States experience at some point, that empowers the individual and leads more directly to effective care. Though it may seem counterintuitive, fewer medical interventions may produce better results. Expecting a probe, a pill, or a procedure to cure back pain is usually unrealistic, yet entire industries promote the notion that someone else will fix you. Watch Your Back! exposes these flaws in the current approach to back pain,Trade Review[Starred Review] Deyo (Oregon Health and Science Univ.Hope or Hype) methodically looks at the most frequently used methods of diagnosis and treatment and finds the evidence often lacking, negative, or distorted. With no stake in any particular treatment, the author cites numerous research studies, quotes experts he has interviewed, and provides anecdotes about sufferers, including President John F. Kennedy and Chair of Medicine at Harvard Medical School Jerome Groopman. The author's consistent message is that there is no magic bullet, that more isn't always better, and that patients should be informed partners in any decision. VERDICT Concise, clearly written, and evidence based, Deyo's work would be invaluable to those facing the onset of back pain and the dizzying range of treatment choices, as well as to practitioners and policy makers. * Library Journal *Table of Contents1.
