Description
The thoroughly updated edition of this classic text covers the palpation and surface marking techniques of whole body including: upper
and lower limb, head and neck, thorax, and abdomen. Each body section is broken down to further describe bones, joints, muscles, nerves,
arteries, and veins, and includes a review question page at the end of every chapter. This book enables the readers' ability to identify,
understand and palpate structures through intact skin and aids the practitioner in the assessment and diagnosis of conditions using manual
contact techniques.
