Abstract/Notes Objective: To present reviews of publications released during 2007 that were considered relevant to the practice and profession of chiropractic, and to gather these by cognate themes.

Discussion: A total of 14 works are included in this review paper. The most outstanding works are the Thieme series of atlases and DVDs of human anatomy. Other works of note include the second edition of Jamison’s Differential Diagnosis which now comes with an interactive CD, a second edition of the excellent Biomechanics of Back Pain, and new editions from Warren Hammer and Tom Hyde. A new inclusion is a review of an historic text with the view to raising the collective level of appreciation for those authors who worked hard to set the foundation for today’s successful publications.

Conclusion: The lower than usual number of releases does not predicate on the profession in any negative fashion at this time. While the quantity is low the quality is better than ever.
