[Thanks] to the combination of evidence based information and easy reading I feel that this book is one of the must have texts for all physiotherapists with an interest in respiratory or cardiac problems." The Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Respiratory Care Newsletter
"Now in its fourth edition this text is a must for all physiotherapy students. The chapters are well laid out, and all of the information is explained in an easily understandable way. This new edition provides the most up to date information for clinical practice from paediatrics through to the elderly. Chapter six is particularly useful, it provides the reader with case studies and then works through a logical way of problem solving along with introducing the reader to specific outcome measures. All in all a must have text!!!!" - Laura Culpan, Physiotherapy student, University of Bradford
