Every clinician who handles patients with such health issues should read this book. This comes as a useful clinical guide that will help bridge the gaps we see across the globe in the management of patients with head and neck related pathologies.

The Head and Neck: Theory and Practice is a well-structured and accessible resource that brings together expert insights on cervical spine disorders, alongside evidence-based approaches to diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. A particular strength of the book is its emphasis on clinical reasoning, equipping therapists to navigate the complex, multifactorial presentations commonly seen in practice. This is a valuable reference for clinicians and students and a welcome addition to any musculoskeletal outpatient department library. -- Professor Tom Wainwright, Professor of Orthopaedics and Consultant Physiotherapist This is one of a useful series of texts. It is comprehensive co-written by leading figures. The text is well laid out in main sections that cover useful overviews of anatomy & biomechanics, clinical pathologies, assessment & management and clinical case studies. It would be of interest to healthcare professionals and students. -- Dr James Milligan, Head of Subject (Rehabilitation and Health Professions) at Leeds Beckett University
