Review
This is a very good reference on a very specific topic. Although concise, the book is comprehensive enough to be useful to instructors, therapists, and students.” Terry Peralta, MA, PhD Candidate, Doody Enterprises, Inc.
I would consider this book a valuable resource for both occupational therapy students and practicing therapists The tables that compare the different names and the use of photographs to clearly show the specific grasps are excellent.” Jane Henry, Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy.
