Transaction was fine. The text appears as a series of copy and pasting entries as many phrases repeat one another, sometimes within the same paragraph. It covers a TON of content, so specificity suffers, but the editors could have consolidated many statements throughout. Also, more diagrams will help the reader. This book relies too heavily on straight text. Still, as a quick reference and not a definitive guide, this book suits its purposes.
The amount of mistakes in this textbook is horrendous. And I mean factual mistakes, not your average run of the mill grammatical stuff. I don't refer to this book in my studies because I can't trust it.
This textbook is filled with tons of information. Not too much detail but touches on many different areas and gives great pointers to PTA's.
In an educational book like this, an index is necessary. This book is packed with information that can't easily be accessed.
This book flows very well and is easy to read. I really like how it has the pathologies bolded throughout the chapter.
