Review

'No doubt Socrates is smiling. In Hand Rehabilitation: A Quick Reference Guide and Review, Nancy Falkenstein and Susan Weiss-Lessard use a mostly Socratic method - question and answer format - to teach a wide range of topics on hand therapy. In doing so, the authors demonstrate both their wealth of knowledge on hand therapy and their skills in teaching hand therapy. They also reveal their creativity and sense of fun' -- Karen Schultz-Johnson, MS, OTR, FAOTA, CHT, Director, Rocky Mountain Hand Therapy, President, UE TECH, from the foreword
