I was fortunate enough to have Dr. Oatis teach me firsthand at Arcadia University. This book is a culmination of many years of clinical and also teaching experience wrapped into one astonishing book. The beginning provides the basis of biomechanics and its principles in relation to bones, muscle, joints etc. From there, the book is divided into units looking at every anatomical complex in the body. Each unit is broken down to examine the bones and joints in the first section, followed by the mechanics and pathomechanics of muscle, and finishing with a look at the forces involved at each joint. You will go on to read about every anatomical muscle and what occurs if there is weakness, tightness or even a nerve injury. The remarkable part about this book is the fact that in every section there are numerous examples that relate to problems that are relevant to clinical practice. I highly recommend this book to all physical therapy students, practicing phyical therapists, and also to universities with physical therapy programs.

This is a great reference book and useful in solving problems and helping my clients. The illustrations are well done and very helpful. It is on my desk and open most of the time. This is a great compliment and addition to other physiology and anatomy reference books.
