Abstract
Book Review: J. R. Gage, M. H. Schwartz, S. E. Koop, T. F. Novacheck (eds): The identification and treatment of gait problems in cerebral palsy
Highlights
Received: 6 February 2010 / Accepted: 8 February 2010 / Published online: 21 February 2010 Ó EPOS 2010. This is multi-authored text which covers far more than just the identification and treatment of gait problems in cerebral palsy (CP)
These first sections of the book read like a symposium on neurological and orthopedic manifestations of CP. Another outstanding chapter is the chapter authored by Gage and Schwartz on ‘‘Consequences of Brain Injury in Musculoskeletal Development,’’ which contains within it a segment which should perhaps have been separated as an individual chapter between pages 116 and 128 on levers and lever arm problems
The final section includes excellent chapters on measurement tools and the long-term consequences of interventions using the World Health Organization (WHO) framework for disease and function (ICDF), which examines the multiple domains of function of a person with a chronic handicapping condition
