Physical Diagnosis of Pain

.".".the only book available on this subject. Though titled an atlas, the text and the images are good enough that this can easily be used as a brief textbook of physical examination. Other books on similar topics are more concerned with description of the tests than their demonstration. The focus on demonstration makes this book more helpful in busy situations." " -Tariq M.
