Thank you. 1. E-Book
Reports:
E-Book Reports are not meant to be typical “book reviews”
but rather a way of letting the reader know what books are available
that may be of interest to therapists. In addition, the reports
offer an opportunity to recognize and support PT/PTA authors who
take on the tremendous task of writing a book as a contribution
to our profession. Adding the book to your library shelf is your
decision.
2.Publishing
News:Is there a PT or PTA who is in the midst
of preparing a manuscript for publication on a subject that you
would like to know about? Are there several therapists contemplating
writing a book on the same subject? Hopefully, this website will
carry news of prospective plans by potential authors who will
be asked to share information with you.
3. Links:Through
this website, you will be able to link up with authors, publishers
and physical therapy related websites.
4. Books
Available:Books authored and signed by “Dr.
Jay” include the historical biographies of Signe Brunnstrom,
Drs. Karel and Berta Bobath, and William John Little, MD.
Limited copies are available and may be purchased directly from
PTJay.
6. "Find-A-Book:
A Special Project" Find-A-Book: In a special project
involving years of work, Jay Schleichkorn is developing a directory
of books authored, co-authored, edited, co-edited, etc, by a physical
therapist or a PTA and published in English. He estimates more
than 1400 books published since 1921 to the present, are now in
the directory Information includes the author, book description,
publisher, and annotated information about its content. Since
it is “under construction” the directory has not been
formally made available but if you are searching for such a book,
Jay can easily check his digital files and send you what information
is available. The project is tentatively titled, The Almost Complete
Directory of Books by PT Practitioners or A Century Plus of Books
by PT Practitioners.
