The Oxford Handbook of Rehabilitation Medicine is designed to provide concise information on rehabilitation aspects of long-term medical conditions affecting adults. The book has two sections, one on clinical symptom-specific approaches and another on condition-specific approaches. The
clinical approach section outlines the management of common symptoms encountered in rehabilitation settings. The section on specific conditions provides information that will enable the reader to put the symptoms in context with the condition and provide direct management in a comprehensive and
holistic manner.

As the practice in rehabilitation goes beyond dealing with condition specific symptoms and is more focused on problem solving, the handbook provides a solid grounding in managing common practical problems in functions such as mobility, cognition, sex, relationships and work productivity. The
conditions covered include neurological, musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiac, pulmonary, cancer, vascular, trauma and burns. The latest advances from the field of orthotics, prosthesis, wheelchairs, technical aids and rehabilitation technology are included. The content and layout within each
chapter and handbook as a whole attempt to capture all the aspects of WHO ICF biopsychosocial model for health conditions.

This Handbook, although aimed at medical doctors in the specialist area of Rehabilitation Medicine (also known as Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine in some countries), will prove useful to other members of the multidisciplinary rehabilitation team such as physiotherapists, occupational
therapists, nurses, psychologists, speech and language therapists, dieticians, support workers and any other allied healthcare professionals working in rehabilitation of chronic conditions. The Handbook will also appeal to doctors in the related specialties like Neurology, Orthopaedics and Trauma,
Palliative Medicine, Geriatrics, Pain Medicine and Sports and Exercise Medicine.

Industry Reviews
This text goes further than many in that it is packed with information beyond the core issues...It is pleasing to see a handbook that covers not only physical care, but psychological and social aspects as well. * Nursing Standard *
...a welcome contribution to the understanding of the interdisciplinary nature of rehabilitation medicine...useful to both those new to the field as well as those looking for a quick reference on a day-to-day basis. * Doody's Notes *
