This occupational therapy manual instructs students in the use of assessment tools when evaluating the range of motion and strength of clients, yet emphasizes the time efficiency required in today's healthcare environment. Students learn to screen clients for strength and motion deficits using functional observation and to formulate appropriate intervention plans through gross manual muscle assessment. Students also receive instruction in methods of isolated manual muscle testing and when it is appropriate to progress to this specific assessment.

Beware OTs! I am an OT Doctoral Student and we were assigned this textbook for use in a Kinesiology course. It is filled with errors. Pictures are with the wrong muscles or muscle tests, information is inconsistent, there are serious errors with the descriptions of some muscles, etc. etc. etc. With help from our professor, we are planning to write a letter to the editor with a detailed description of each and every error. Who knows, maybe they will be embarassed enough to give us our money back.

Nice source for ROM and MMT (both group and individual)for occupational therapists. I especially like the ASHT variation guidelines which were included. Many OT sources do not have complete or clear "group" muscle testings, this book did. It also had clear and "to the point" explanations of purpose of each testing procedure. Pictures of "gravity lessened" muscle testing procedures would be helpful.
Commend the authors!
