Customer Reviews

A must for physical therapy, a very good book

The book is an excellent source of information on neuroscience in physcial therapy. Easy read.

Good book for OT/PT

This book is written for OT/PT and it has alot in information crammed in it. It doesn't dumb down the information and I'm a student so sometimes I need to look up things to understand what the text is talking about but it's definitely aimed at professionals.

A good general reference

Laurie Lundy-Ekman's book was the textbook in my recent upper division neuroanatomy course and offered a good base reference for the course. The author mentions neurological problems relevant to the brain area discussed in that chapter, which is helpful for a better understanding. Its a great reference book to keep on the shelf and its smaller size makes it more handy than other larger neurology books.
