Very good...well organzied. Jun 16, 2008
By Degrees An excellent text it basically gives you everything you need to know about manual muscle testing (MMT) and cranial nerve testing. A great thing about this text is that it has a DVD that shows certain MMT so you can better understand how to perform the tests. The text also isolates and identifies what muscles are being tested as well as the nerves being test. I find that very useful. It has tables with normative values as well.
Good starters guide May 01, 2010
By MadisonGirl123 We used this book for manual muscle testing and it gave the basics, but had bad stabilization of the patient. We ended up changing a lot of what the book said. It does have thorough information on muscle actions and innervations.

Complete guide to muscle testing Feb 25, 2006
By E. Vaughan The format is user friendly and the information is complete (although my teacher disagrees with some of the details.) The DVD woudn't load on my iMac, but others had no trouble and found it helpful.
