Biography & Memoir History Health & Medicine
The Path to Professionalism: Physiotherapy in Australia by Philip Bentley and David Dunstan charts the rise of Australian physiotherapy from informal beginnings to a respected health profession by the 1980s. This concise 2006 APA paperback blends biography, cultural history and medical insight to show how wars, politics and public demand shaped practice nationwide.
Ideal for physiotherapy students, clinicians and collectors of Australian medical history, the 245-page volume delivers true stories of pioneering therapists, professional battles and educational reforms. Its clean, tight pages preserve decades of research without the underlining or dog-ears common in ex-library copies.
The book remains in very good condition: light cover scuffs and minor edge wear only, no writing, tears or loose leaves, from a smoke-free home. A scarce, out-of-print resource for anyone tracing APA heritage or exploring health treatments Down Under.
