Daniels and Worthingham's Muscle Testing: Techniques of Manual Examination, 8th Edition is the original handbook of manual evaluation of muscular strength. In addition to offering traditional methods for assessing and grading skeletal muscle function, the book provides a comprehensive section on muscle anatomy and innervations that rounds out the testing chapters by linking muscle topography and function. This edition includes a new DVD of tests and procedures video clips that supplement the tests explained in the book.
- Helpful Hints and Substitutions boxes provide additional tips and highlight muscle substitutions that may occur during a test to ensure greater accuracy in testing.
- Clearly identifies each muscle in the body by a constant reference number that can be found indexed in the Alphabetical List of Muscles by Region and Ready Reference Anatomy to help the reader quickly identify any muscle.
- Richly illustrated to clearly show testing sequences, muscle anatomy, and muscle innervation for more accurate practice.
- Companion DVD features video of over 100 muscle tests illustrating the art and technique of muscle testing in a clinical setting.
- Updated references for each chapter feature the most current information available.

I have just begun using this text in my DPT program this past week, and it has already come in quite handy. It is a great addition/alternative to the Kendall manual muscle testing text because Hislop includes so many helpful illustrations and clear descriptions of both patient and PT positioning. Our professors have suggested several small edits to the techniques described in the book to allow better body mechanics for the PT, but I am glad to have this text as a thorough guide as I begin to learn manual muscle testing technique.

Good: This book has very helpful text and pictures. It breaks down the grades of manual muscle testing as well as gives you some information on specific muscles.
Bad: the pages are very thin and flimsy, ill probably tear one soon, because they're already bent. The binding is not ideal- a hard cover but an exposed plastic binding. Hopefully they upgrade the quality of the physical book and pages next edition.
