Synopsis
Rybski (occupational therapy, The Ohio State University) helps occupational therapists manage each step of the kinesiology continuum, from problem identification of client musculoskeletal factors to the final stage of selecting appropriate intervention strategies, in this book/CD-ROM text for occupational therapists and students. The text describes how joints, muscles, and bones interact to produce movement, and explains kinesiology concepts with regard to forces acting on the body and how these forces influence movement and intervention with clients. B&w photos and illustrations are included. The CD-ROM contains an interactive tutorial on goniometry, plus a review of key concepts from the text, featuring audio, video, and narration.
