N2  - Despite growing reliance on imaging, clinical examination remains the bedrock of diagnosis of the musculoskeletal patient.  Special tests have widespread utility particularly in sport and can often help to elucidate a patient's presentation where the lesion is subtle and otherwise difficult to defect and, in turn, guide management and treatment.  Handbook of Special Tests in Musculoskeletal Examination, 2nd Edition is a pocketbook guide to 100 peripheral tests.  It includes:

-  a fully illustrated step-by-step guide to each test giving clinicians all the information they need at their fingertips.
-  a focused review of the latest evidence and how this applies to practice.
-   use of clinical tips and expert opinion to allow clinicians to select the most appropriate test and interpret the results meaningfully
