starting from the pathophysiology of stroke and spinal cord injury and the anatomical context of the brain and spinal cord, this book describes the changes, complications, systemic involvement, medical and surgical management of stroke and spinal injury patients. It focuses not only on the neuromuscular rehabilitation but also discusses multi-system rehabilitation management.

The physical examination of the spine can be a complex topic for professionals with all levels of clinical experience. How can advance concepts be taught in a user-friendly, clear format, while still providing necessary information for effective diagnosis and treatment of the spine?

Its multidisciplinary approach covers a wide scope of treatments from manual therapies to medical interventions to surgery, organizing interventions from least to most invasive.
