Originally published in 2004, The Medico-Legal Back addresses the problem for a legal readership, in a clear, concise and reader-friendly style. It does away with the need to search for and then extract complex information from many different sources, and as such will be an indispensable guide to the problem for all lawyers, judges and medico-legal experts, as well as being of value to the orthopaedic surgeon with an interest in the spine. Of particular value is the use throughout the book of analogies drawn on anatomical technicalities and common movements, situations and incidents of everyday life. 606 $aMedical jurisprudence 606 $aSpine$xWounds and injuries$xDiagnosis 606 $aPersonal injuries 615 0$aMedical jurisprudence. 615 0$aSpine$xWounds and injuries$xDiagnosis. 615 0$aPersonal injuries. 676 $a614/.1 700 $aDickson$b Robert A.$01047145 702 $aButt$b Paul 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451440803321 996 $aThe medico-legal back$92474531 997 $aUNINA
