The legacy
continues–originally published in 1949, Henry and Florence Kendall's
MUSCLE TESTING and FUNCTION advanced the field of physical therapy and
has remained the Gold Standard of musculoskeletal assessment.
This renowned classic provides unparalleled coverage of manual
muscle testing, plus evaluation and treatment of faulty and painful
postural conditions. The thoroughly updated Fifth Edition is completely
reorganized and has new, expanded treatment and exercise sections in
each chapter. Other features include a new section on post-polio
syndrome, additional case studies comparing Guillain-Barré to polio
muscle tests, a new full-color design, and a first-of-its-kind chart of
upper extremity articulations.
A bonus Primal Anatomy CD-ROM contains a three-dimensional
interactive model of the human body. Students can rotate the model and
add or subtract layers of anatomy to strengthen their knowledge.
