Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Guides to the evaluation of Permanent Impairment
This book is jam packed and jelly shut with powerful information for the sharp expert who simply needs to just fine tune his or her skills. This is also a must for every primary caregivers personal library.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - better, but could still use improvement
Several chapters, such as the one on the spine, lower extremities, skin, and pulmonary system are, indeed, quite well-written and fairly easy to follow.

The chapter on upper extremities, however, is simply in deplorable shape.

Moreover, the AMA guides did not do a good job of explaining when it is appropriate to use a certain method and when it is not. in many cases, the evaluator is not sure which method to use, even after a careful reading of the guides.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Better than Ambiem and a shot
Absolutely the best bedtime reading to fall quickly asleep. Much more effective than 1-4th Editions. Richard S Glosser MD Orthopedic Surgeon.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - AMA Guides
It's the standard. Can't get around it. Examples are very good. Read through the examples for a thorough understanding and you'll be fine.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Business purchase
I ordered these for independent adjusters who work for my firm, and they find them indispensable. Because I am not an adjuster, I am unable to evaluate them.
