Doody's Book Review Service "The scope of clinical coverage is comprehensive.The second edition adds a great deal of information concerning clinical chiropractic management It is a substantial improvement over the first edition, which already was a very good text." Reviewer: Dana J. Lawrence, DC (Palmer College of Chiropractic) "Simply stated,Thomas A. Souza's Differential Diagnosis and Management for the Chiropractor, Second Edition is an absolutely outstanding text. Open the front cover, and before you even reach the title page, there is a quick reference guide to locate over 300 conditions commonly encountered in clinical practice. From abdominal pain to restless leg syndrome to turf toe to whiplash, the clinician has an instant review at his or her fingertips. How good is this book? I would buy it in a second for twice the price and if I were limited to only one book in my practice, this would be the one." G. Douglas Andersen, D.C. Dynamic Chiropractic Vissza
