Excerpt from On Modern Methods of Treating Fractures
The x rays, discovered at the end of the last century, quickly gave ready explanation of the most important factor in the causation of this state of affairs, by demonstrating that gross mal-union accompanied most cases of lasting disablement. This demonstration has convinced all except those who wish to remain blind that the basic idea of the old treatment of frac tures - viz., that of 'setting' the bone - was largely mythical; and if we. Once admit that we cannot 'set' a broken bone, then we must be prepared to deal with it in some other way.
