Developmental and Functional Hand Grasps

Summary: Developmental and Functional Hand Grasps
Review: "Developmental & Functional Hand Grasps" is the most valuable book on this topic published in recent years. First, it has certainly met the objectives stated in the introduction. I found it to be an exciting but easy read, with logical organization, comprehensive inclusion of theoretical approaches, and exactly the right kinds of photos and drawings. How great that the photos gave examples of so many different Activities of Daily Living, common in our lives, but seldom depicted. I especially enjoyed the Descriptions, Interesting Information, and Functional Uses. The presentation of the hand from physiological, developmental, and functional perspectives has not been done as fully but simply by other authors. Finally, the book will be useful as an important resource to students, clinicians, and researchers alike.
