Low vision rehabilitation is rapidly growing as a specialty practice for occupational therapists. This growth requires practical, evidence-based information on the evaluation and treatment of the effects of low

vision on occupational performance. This text blends standards of practice by low vision therapists and optometrists with the latest scientific research and the unique perspective of occupational therapists.

This book provides all the tools necessary to competently perform those complex assessments and treatment plans. If occupational therapists truly embrace visual rehabilitation, we will have a wonderful new resource to help our low-vision patients. This book does a nice job of making the optics and science easy to understand. I strongly recommend it, not only to occupational therapists, but also to eye doctors who treat low-vision patients.

Manheim has taken years of knowledge and expertise and incorporated them with the actual intent and result of the myofascial release treatment techniques to bring to the pages of this Fourth Edition essential information for the student and clinician in search of basic information or wanting to refine more experienced skills of these manual therapy techniques.

Clinical applications for motor ControlPatricia C. Montgomery, PhD, PT, Therapeutic Intervention Programs Inc, Hopkins, MN; Barbara H. Connolly, EdD, PT, FAPTA, The University of Tennessee Memphis, Memphis, TN416 pp, Soft Cover, 2003 ISBN 13: 978-1-55642-545-5, Order# 45457, $59.95

Five case studies representing common clinical problems are included throughout the text to facilitate clinical problem solving. This innovative style is geared towards the student who has

limited clinical experience, while also serving as a useful reference for the practicing clinician.

The book is a valuable contribution to the literature and could provide a useful application tool for practicing clinicians and students.

This text, which previously was primarily used as supplemental reading for physical therapist students, is now what I would consider a strong stand-alone text. The use of case studies is a very

compelling aspect of this edition of the book, one that should be very helpful for students. I would recommend all pediatric physical therapists add this book to their libraries and would expect that faculty would find this text useful for students in their educational programs.
