This is a bright, refreshing, easily-read book, which features a vast number of high-quality diagrams and photographs…the author’s coverage of the subject is concise, elaborate and well-referenced…This book is an invaluable reference for doctors and physiotherapists in sports medicine and I am sure it will stand the test of time’ Tom Nolan, Physiotherapy (2003; 89: 6)‘…an excellent and highly recommended book that should be found on every practitioner’s shelf

The book is cleverly written and presented so that enthusiasts of biomechanics can use it as a problem-solving reference book or read it from cover to cover without getting bored…This book is a must for all clinicians dealing with problems associated with the human musculoskeletal system and I am confident that it will not collect dust.

Finally, in layman’s language, a clear explanation of the cause and effect relationships between joint and back pain and being out of alignment. Hopefully this understanding will bring an end to the merry-go-round of therapies focused on treating the symptoms, not the cause.

Written by a well-respected physiatrist with years of experience dealing with musculoskeletal dysfunction, this book provides an in-depth and detailed study of malalignment syndrome, in particular affecting the lumbar spine and pelvis. He uses a good balance of “Lay-man’s” language and medical terminology with regards to the complexities of spinal biomechanics. A resource to those clinician’s using manual therapy to assess, treat and ultimately assist in educating their patients.
