Areas of specific interest are as follows; medical definitions, symptons, causes, and legal cases. Your help is much appreciated. Ray

Posted By Peter Rees Have you tried the "Workplace Ergonomics - A Practical Guide" book that is advertised in the back of the SP magazine? This is an excellent reference book on WRULDs/ergonomics. Incidentally, I had to employ an ergonomist recently to carry out an independant report into an RSI claim - guess who my parent company commissioned - yup, the author of the above book (Celine McKeown). She was excellent - forthright, but practical. If you want her contact details let me know. Pete

Posted By kathy goode Hi - I'm new to this group, so this may have been covered before. Does anyone have a simple picture showing a good working position, ie floating hands, upper arm 'hanging ' from shoulder,not dorsi-flexing hands or ulna-rotating etc etc, ? I've got 2 in books - Maggie Black & penny Gray, and pascarelli & Quilter, but these aren't electronic. Thanks
