"...contributes to physical therapist practice by providing a simplified framework that helps readers develop a base understanding and appreciation of research... The book's content is jargon-free and is presented in a clear and concise manner. It includes abundant figures, tables, and examples... Several chapters conclude with a section called 'Things to Do,' which may challenge the reader to apply the concepts to appropriate situations... A strength of this book is the extensive assortment of examples the author uses to highlight important concepts. Overall...a worthwhile resource for students, clinicians, and educators involved in research."Physical Therapy
the author presents the information in an engaging writing style that supports his desire to provide a non-technical, informative text. In addition, readers will find the illustrations throughout the text (which were done by the author) to be useful and entertaining. Overall, I believe this book would be of use to students, educators, and clinicians in the health professions and would be an excellent addition to the health professional's library."Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy
