Since the third edition of Grieve's Modern Manual Therapy was
published in 2005, the original concepts of manipulative therapy
have grown to embrace new research-generated knowledge. Expansions
in practice have adopted new evidence which include consideration
of psychological or social moderators. The original manual therapy
or manipulative therapy approaches have transformed into
musculoskeletal physiotherapy and this is recognized by the change
in title for the new fourth edition - Grieve's Modern
Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. Grieve's Modern Musculoskeletal
Physiotherapy continues to bring together the latest
state-of-the-art research, from both clinical practice and the
related basic sciences, which is most relevant to practitioners.
The topics addressed and the contributing authors reflect the best
and most clinically relevant contemporary work within the field of
musculoskeletal physiotherapy. With this as its foundation and a
new six-strong editorial team at its helm, the fourth edition now
expands its focus from the vertebral column to the entire
musculoskeletal system. For the first time both the spine and
extremities are covered, capturing the key advances in science and
practices relevant to musculoskeletal physiotherapy. The book is
divided into five parts containing multiple sections and chapters.
The first part of the book looks at advances in the sciences
underpinning musculoskeletal physiotherapy practice. Here there is
commentary on topics such as movement, the interaction between pain
and motor control as well as neuromuscular adaptations to exercise.
Applied anatomical structure is covered in addition to the
challenges of lifestyle and ageing. A new section highlights the
important area of measurement and presents the scope of current and
emerging measurements for investigating central and peripheral
aspects relating to pain, function and morphological change.
Another section discusses some contemporary research approaches
such as quantitative and qualitative methods as well as
translational research. Part III contains sections on the
principles of and broader aspects of management which are
applicable to musculoskeletal disorders of both the spine and
periphery. Topics include models for management prescription,
communication and pain management and contemporary principles of
management for the articular, nervous and sensorimotor systems. In
recognition of the patient centred and inclusive nature of
contemporary musculoskeletal practice, there is also discussion
about how physiotherapists may use cognitive behavioural therapies
when treating people with chronic musculoskeletal disorders. The
final part of the book focuses on selected contemporary issues in
clinical practice for a particular region, condition or the most
topical approaches to the diagnosis and management of a region. A
critical review of the evidence (or developing evidence) for
approaches is given and areas for future work are highlighted. The
only textbook which covers the breadth of musculoskeletal
physiotherapy practice, bringing together the work and opinions of
leading international experts Presents the latest science, research
evidence and clinical practices for assessment and management of
spinal and extremity disorders Uses contemporary knowledge in
diagnostics and future directions to demonstrate how to manage both
acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain Considers important aspects
underpinning clinical practice across the biopsychosocial domains

as well as the spine Title, topics, prominent editors and authors -
