| Abstract | Used as both a core textbook in PT programs and as a clinical reference, the 4th Edition, provides the essential information needed by PTs, both student and professional, when working with children. Like the previous editions, the 4th edition follows the practice pattern categories of the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice and uses the IFC model of the disabling process as it presents up-to-date evidence-based coverage of treatment. In this latest edition, Suzann Campbell DeLapp, Robert J. Palisano, and Margo N. Orlin have added more case studies and video clips, additional chapters and Medline-linked references online, and Evidence to Practice boxes to make it easy to find and remember important information ... UNIQUE! The Evolve website now includes references linked to Medline abstracts for easy access to research cited in the text. |
