"Electrotherapy Explained" is an excellent research-based exploration of the major types of electrophysical agents used in clinical practice, particularly human and also animal. For the fourth edition, two new authors join the writing team, presenting the latest information for today's clinicians. The text has been completely updated with a major rewrite of the material, particularly that on electrical stimulation. This book continues to focus on evidence: clinical and biophysical evidence that affects how and which electrotherapies may be of use clinically and when. The inclusion of biophysics as well as clinical evidence and principles of application, enables clinicians to move away from traditional 'recipe-based' approaches and rely more on their own clinical reasoning. The focus remains on humans but the relevance of the principles for using and applying different modalities is explained clearly, providing guidelines for clinicians across disciplines and specialties. "Electrotherapy Explained" continues to be the essential text for all those looking for an accessible introduction to the underlying principles and clinical practice of electrotherapy.

Review:
"This third edition of a popular and easily read text continues in the high standards of the earlier versions. ...there are some changes which make it easier for readers to make the most of the information contained. [...] The layout of the book is improved ...with wide margins to allow readers to make their own comments/annotation, an increased number of figures, tables and illustrations, and the inclusion of boxes of information. The illustrations, which are all monochrome, are well labelled, clear to follow and appropriately titled. Each adds to the text and aids readers understanding. [...] Electrotherapy Explained remains a key textbook for the teaching of electrotherapy to undergraduates, and many clinical departments will find a copy a useful addition to their library."Physiotherapy, February 2001
