I purchased this books, because my child have some minor physical developmental delays (don't crawl, don't stand) and I want to have additional info about PT.However this book is definitely not for parents this is for doctors or medical students. This yellow book small in size but information is huge because of small font and have dictionary-reference style with list of many disorders and list of treatments and loaded with scientific-medical terms that I have no clue about (I'm engineer-technical type person).I bought it used for $5, and for this money it was beneficial to see some pictures and minor reading etc. If I would pay huge price then it would be a waste.I'm planning to gave this book to our PT doctor because it's little use for us, or if she have it then will try to gave it out for free.Again it's may be very useful for specialist, but not for "medical illiterate people" like myself. :)

Although another edition is in the works, this is a great companion for the pediatric PT. It's chock full of information and you can easily throw it in your bag. I'm sure when the next version is coming out, because I'm sorry to say the present version has several minor edit errors and discusses old assessment tools, but if you can wait, wait for the next version.It has information on a variety of information that the novice and ever-learning PT will need access to.

This handbook is a great quick reference for the essentials! It contains great, easy to read charts! Definitely recommend this book to any PT working with kids

Book is handy, very easy to read. A must have!

Great for quick reference to evaluation of the pediatric patient. Puts information in table/list format.
