From the reviews:
"This book sets out the salient points of the history and the physical examination that assist physicians in arriving at an orthopedic diagnosis. ... It is especially appropriate for medical students, interns, or junior residents." (Samuel J. Chmell, Doody's Review Services, February, 2009)
Seyed Behrooz Mostofi, BSc, MBBS, MS (Orth), FRCS (Orth) is Senior Specialist Registrar in Orthopaedics in South Thames Deanery, UK. He is currently based at William Harvey Hospital, Ashford, Kent, UK. He is also the author of several other books in replacement systems and other areas in Orthopaedics. Two of his titles have been published by Springer: 'Who's Who in Orthopedics' and 'Fracture Classifications in Clinical Practice.'
Dr Mostofi has taught the elements of the clinical examination to medical students and doctors taking the FRCS, MRCS and FRCS (Orth) examination over the past few years, enabling him to organise his thinking and refine his teaching methods. As an examiner, he also had the opportunity to test the ability of the candidates and find out the missing areas. The method is broadly based on time tested Apley's system (Look, feel, move, special tests) in a specific, simplified, informative and target based way.
