 instant access to chiropractic guidelines and protocols ( jav2 )
This small paperbound book provides a basic overview of several spinal, extremity, and general health conditions in a self-described "at-a-glance" format. Each section includes information regarding definition, etiology, principle symptoms, exam findings, lab & radiographic findings, and management guidelines. The book does provide some helpful information, but in most cases lacks appropriate detail. Clinicians looking for a text that provides detailed etiologic, diagnostic, and management data will not be adequately informed by this text. Frankly, a few chapters are quite helpful. For example, the chapters (2) dealing with fibromyalgia are some of the best I've yet read on this condition, providing important and clinically useful descriptions of the condition and (most importantly) a detailed list and description of other conditions which need to be considered during patient work-up. But most sections are insufficiently detailed for proper diagnosis and management -- the data in these chapters is introductory at best. Chapters on scoliosis, adhesive capsulitis, ligamentous injuries of the knee, cervical soft tissue injuries, etc., do not thoroughly cover these subjects. What IS provided in most chapters is an overview -- helpful perhaps for someone already versed in the details of these conditions, but inadequate as a primary guide. Neither would this book provide adequate preparatory material for a challenging (such as an oral) board exam. In my professional opinion, this book makes some good contributions, but does not replace more detailed reference texts.

This book will be beneficial to any chiropractic practice. It offers a very good overview of common conditions encountered in chiropractic practice. The layout is orderly and to the point. Especially helpful are the nutritional protocols. I highly recommend this to practitioners and students.

Great Pocket Review for Chiropractic Boards
I used this to study for my Part II, Part III and Part IV Boards as a reference to quick facts and treatment protocols. The condition was explained with specifity and then giving treatment protocol like adjustments, vitamin supplements and specific exercises. If you want to know how the boards will you ask you questions, get the following:
National Board of Chiropractic Part II Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers isbn; 0974328731
National Board of Chiropractic Part III Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations isbn; 09784328723
National Board of Chiropractic Part IV Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers Vol 1 and Vol 2
These study guides were so on target with the type of questions asked on the boards. My friends and I used these books for the boards and helped us pass. I recommend also Yochum's on x-rays for x-ray review. Get these books, worth the money.

A "must have" book for natural medicine doctors and students ( draffelock )
Drs. David Brady and Lew Huff have done a truly excellent job of overviewing and synopsizing many of the common conditions that doctors of chiropractic(DC) have been treating effectively for many decades. The "Instant Access" design of this book makes it very user friendly and desireable in both a busy office setting and for home study. The addition of nutritional protocols and appropriate laboratory assesments for the conditions covered make this comprehensive book a "must have" book for both new and seasoned doctors and for students of natural medicine whether they be DCs, NDs, DOs, or MDs. Non-professionals interested in making sure they are receiving the most comprehensive care possible will also derive tremendous value from owning and reading this book. Bravo to the authors for offering such a fine contribution to natural medicine!

 Instant Access to Chiropractic Guidelines and Protocols ( lcook@internetwork.net )
I have used this book in my practice for a reference. Although at times it can be conservative in its treatment guidelines, it is a good source with a significant amount of articles to validate itself.
