Spinal Stabilization - The New Science of Back Pain, 2nd Ed. by Jemmett Rick

There were several compelling reasons which prompted me to undertake the work of translating and commenting upon the Vale of Tears by Joseph of all, those of Hacohen, the sixteenth century physician and historian. First us who have been teaching in the area of the Middle Ages have noticed over the past several years a distinct upsurge of interest in the field. Consequently, a number of Medieval Institutes, non-denominational in character and attached to major universitites, have sprung up all over the United States trying once more to relate themselves to that age which witnessed - among other things - the unparalleled struggle between two power complexes, the Church and the State. Scholars will also have to consider the Jewish Middle Ages, interconnected with the Christian Middle Ages, which lasted much longer and far beyond the Renaissance in Europe. Most of them tended to gloss over this aspect of Western Civilization which found the Jew in the juggernaut between these two powers. Students of all faiths, ecumenically oriented and truthful to the point of self-abasement are now ready, without a sense of embarrassment, to discuss this long bleak period in the history of European man, where greed, envy, suspicion and religious fanaticism had triumphed over reason and piety. Yet, beyond all of this, there was another consideration which guided me in doing this tedious and often frustrating work: the knowledge of Hebrew has been on the decline in this country.

Rick Jemmett's clinical work as a physical therapist at Maritime Physiotherapy involves the diagnosis and treatment of people with various forms of neuromusculoskeletal pathology, including sport-related conditions and injuries. His primary area of clinical interest is the rehabilitation and prevention of spinal and shoulder instability. Rick is a guest lecturer and clinical instructor with the Dalhousie University School of Physiotherapy in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He has also lectured and taught courses for physiotherapists, physicians, kinesiologists and physiotherapy assistants across Canada and the United States through the Atlantic Manual Therapy Institute. Rick's research interests involve the anatomical and motor control aspects of spinal stability in both healthy and back-injured people. Recently his research work has been published in journals such as 'Manual Therapy' and the 'British Journal of Sports Medicine'. As a strength and conditioning consultant, Rick works with athletes, both recreational and competitive, developing their sport specific conditioning programs. Athletes from a wide variety of sports including running, paddling, triathlon, rugby, hockey, football, basketball, baseball and soccer have sought him out for advice regarding effective and up-to-date training.
