This book is a first in the sense that there have been no other books specifically covering rheumatoid arthritis as it affects the foot and ankle. This book will be particularly useful to clinicians and educators. Students looking for a specific reference will also find it a useful primer. 4 Stars! Doody's Review Service
At last!!! Rheumatoid Arthritis patients are a huge percentage of podiatry workload - to date there is very little specific information on Rheumatoid Arthritis and feet. Great to have patient input with book in addition to professionals. - Kizzy Harris, Podiatrist, Hampshire
