Designed to be a primary reference for chiropractic students, this is a concise, scientific survey of chiropractic theories based on current research.

This is a useful reference for students studying for the National Board of Chiropractors Examination Parts II, III, and IV, as well as a post-graduate reference providing information on the chiropractic perspective on health and wellness, nutrition, exercise, psychosocial issues, and case management principles for wellness care.
