I bought this book used, but it might as well have been BRAND NEW!It was in EXCELLENT condition.The vendor shipped the product EXTREMELY QUICKLY, too.The book arrived within a few days of placing the order and was not damaged in shipping.Although this was not the newest edition of the book, it was exactly what was advertised, and I was happy to be able to save a LOT of money buying this slightly older edition of this book in great condition.This was a MAJOR bargain!!!

Sue's Review
This book is in excellent shape. The delivery was fast and I am sure I will use it for many years to come.

Excellent!
I use Stedman's Orthopaedic & Rehab Words book every day with my work and am so thankful I have it as a fast and reliable reference.I have had other Orthopaedic reference books but do not use them anymore as Stedman's is the most comprehensible and thorough. It is next to me when I work and never have to worry if I need to check on a word.Stedman's are the only reference books in my library now.

Product Description
Podiatry is the field of medicine that specializes in the care, diagnosis, and treatment of the feet. Formerly known as chiropody, modern podiatry covers the entire range of foot problems from a simple case of athlete's foot to sports injuries to long-term conditions caused by accidents and diseases. Using the most up-to-date practices and equipment, podiatrists, like other medical specialists, care for their patients both in an office setting and in hospitals. The diagnosis of foot problems can include visual inspections, x-rays, and other sophisticated testing tools. Treatment options may include prescription medicines, orthotics, physical therapy, and surgery.

Podiatry Sourcebook offers general information about the practice of podiatry; how to choose a podiatrist; a range of foot-related diseases, conditions, and injuries; what you can do to care for your feet; and where to find additional information. ... Read more

Product Description
The human foot is a complex body part composed of fifty-two bones, which is twenty-five percent of all the bones in the body. Nonetheless, the foot is often viewed by the public and doctors as a “minor” body part. Similarly, the importance of pedal evidence in crime investigation has also long been undervalued, but as footwear evidence has become more commonly used in forensic situations, so has pedal evidence, which is why this seminal work is so important: it is the first textbook ever dedicated to forensic podiatry.Forensic Podiatry is an international compilation of current practices authored by the pioneers in the field. Part I discusses general forensic concerns, including those at the crime scene, from an informative perspective. It covers tasks performed by the crime laboratory, forensic podiatry principles, and various aspects of human identification. Part II deals with specific forensic podiatric concerns such as photographic techniques, bare footprint identification, and footwear examination and analysis. It also discusses forensic gate and analysis as well as the identification of pedal remains from podiatry records, which is important for mass disaster scenes. Part III presents actual forensic podiatry case studies from the United Kingdom and the United States, and Part IV focuses on podiatry practice standards, which in many instances parallel expert witness responsibilities. Groundbreaking and essential, this book is useful for medical and criminal justice students as well as podiatrists, criminalists, footwear examiners, forensic anthropologists, attorneys and investigators. ...

Indispensable for the practicing podiatrist
Dr. Zier was my internal medicine professor in San Francisco and utilized this text to supplement his lectures.It contains all of the pertinent clinical information that a practicing podiatrist needs to address theproblems of his or her patients.It is clearly written and weeds out theextraneous information that would serve no purpose in modern podiatry.

Product Description
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Podiatry," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Podiatry in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Podiatry when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Podiatry, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more

Orthopedic/Neurology Word and Phrase Book
This product is disappointing. It is limited in words when compared to Stedman's books.

Different books on the dfferent areas of practice are better. ... Read more
