Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book details the history of orthopedic surgery, tracing it from the time of Andry to the present day. The author notes that America has made the most important contributions to orthopedic surgery, especially advancements in the treatment of diseases and deformities of the joints and spine. The author goes on to define orthopedic surgery as a department of general surgery that includes the mechanical and operative treatment of chronic and progressive deformities, for the proper treatment of which specially devised apparatus is necessary. However, the author emphasizes that while orthopedic surgeons should be well-educated in general surgery, they should not attempt to practice it, as their expertise is in the field of mechanotherapy. The book argues that there is enough work and study within the field of orthopedic surgery that it should not be combined with general surgery, as this combination can detract from orthopedic surgery's highly specialized work. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
