Recensione:

This is a thoroughly enjoyable book that allows one to see where we've been, where we are, and where we are going. It shows that orthopaedic surgeons have a fine disregard for convention, standing on the shoulders of the giants before them, continuing to make wonderful and astounding progress in the treatment of musculoskeletal problems. Reading this book will make you happy and proud to be a part of this ongoing progress called the evolution of orthopaedic surgery.

A fascinating book...They [the contributors] have concentrated on the remarkable explosion of advances in this subject that has taken place in recent decades. Professor Klenerman and his co-authors have produced a book that will appeal to orthopaedists, rheumatologists, and all of us with an interest in the history of medicine.

packed with information that is fascinating in detail yet very readable.
Medical Sciences History, Volume 18, 2002

This book presents a thorough and scholarly account of the history of orthopaedics, with all the important references quoted at the end of each chapter. The book could therefore be used for serious academic study, or read from cover to cover...It should be a useful reference for writing papers, and especially for preparation of lectures for teaching.
