      This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. Many medical and health professional schools have replaced their traditional curriculum with problem based learning, or a derivative. This book is designed to provide a comprehensive guide and resource for students in the early years of these courses, and will assist them to adapt their learning style to working with others in small groups. The book explains the differences between PBL and traditional learning, the aims and essential elements of PBL, and provides the keys for successful group discussion. Students are shown how to define the learning issues and how to construct their own mechanisms for each case they study, before moving on to the aims and tools commonly used in assessment, and tips for increasing scores in examinations. The book will also assist tutors to design cases.

      Il manquait un ouvrage princeps exposant les concepts de base de l'ostéopathie et dressant un panorama exhaustif de cette science, qui est aussi une philosophie et un art. Ostéopathie : principes et applications ostéoarticulaires trouve une place légitime dans la littérature consacrée à l'ostéopathie en général et dans cette collection en particulier. Connaître l'anatomie et la physiologie pour comprendre la pathologie, appréhender la globalité fonctionnelle de l'entité corporelle, maîtriser les trois principes indissociables qui gouvernent le processus de diagnostic et dictent les gestes thérapeutiques sont les bases nécessaires à la bonne pratique de l'ostéopathie. L'ostéopathe est avant tout un praticien généraliste. Il accorde davantage d'importance au mécanisme générant la pathologie qu'au symptôme lui-même. Il est à la fois ingénieur et mécanicien de l'organisme et tend à restaurer ou instaurer l'harmonie entre structure et fonction. Après un rappel des fondements historiques et étymologiques, Olivier Auquier aborde les principes et concepts de l'ostéopathie, puis les applications pratiques du système ostéoarticulaire. Didactique et très richement illustré, l'ouvrage offre une vision novatrice de l'ostéopathie.
