“This is a very good text on the bony mechanisms behind growth plate diseases in the pediatric and adult skeletal systems. ... I recommend this book for residents, fellows, orthophysicians, and rheumatologists. Lists, tables, graphs, radiographs, and MRI scans are employed to aid in the discussions presented.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, December, 2015)
