This concise, hands-on text provides a method for making evidence-based decisions in practice.

Five Case Scenarios are used throughout the book and cover the broad areas of therapy/prevention, diagnosis, etiology/harm/causation, and prognosis. Each chapter has objectives, suggested activities, a quiz, critical thinking questions, and exercises.

This is a horrible book. Instructors should not use this text for their classes. It is hard to follow and does not present information well. If it was in more simple straight forward terms than it would be alright.

Bought this text for a class. Bought new for online code for use of student resources. Not as boring as originally expected. ...

It was needed for a class. I wouldn't have bought it otherwise.

ok
