Dedication
This edition of the text is dedicated to my wife, Tricia, who is also a physical therapist. Our relationship began when we were both conducting clinical rotations at Rancho Los Amigos Hospital in Downey, CA as students from different programs. Our personal journeys soon aligned, while our professional journeys diverged a bit—I moved into academe and she continued with clinical practice. Over the decades of my academic career, her clinical perspectives were instrumental in ensuring I would apply the knowledge, skills, and attitudes I addressed in my courses into clinical applications. Her guest appearances in my classes and labs always added a clinical aspect to the content. I am grateful for her professional guidance and perspectives; caring for her patients/clients, family, friends, and complete strangers; and certainly her partnership through our 40 years of marriage.
