Baltimore, The William and Wilkins Company, 1961, 8°, 80 pp., 18 Reels, 1 Sawyers View Master, Compact Vieter, orig. cloth. First Edition! Dr John J. Joyce, III, of the Department of Orthopaedics and Dr. Michael Hartv of the Department of Anatomy in the Graduate School of Medicine of the University of Pennsylvania have been teaching graduate students Orthopaedic Surgery for ten years. Through their experience in coordinating surgery and anatomy they have produced a fresh concept of an atlas on surgical approaches. Their spirit of teaching represents that which has prevailed in the Graduate School of Medicine since its organization by Dr. George H. Meeker in 1916. At that time, the era of medical specialization was in its inception. This usually meant that a group of physicians spent a few months observing the professor in the surgical amphitheater. The "students" were then awarded certificates designating them as "specialists." Because he appreciated the rapid progress that was being made in medicine, Dr. Meeker felt that instruction in the basic sciences was essential to specialization. Hence, for over forty years anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, bacteriology and pathology have occupied at least half of the graduate medical students' curriculum at the University of Pennsylvania. In addition to anatomical dissection, the courses in surgical specialties include a course in operative surgery on the cadaver. In this book Dr. Joyce and Dr. Harty demonstrate the vital relationship between anatomy and surgical approaches. Their work is not just another atlas. It is not just a set of stereopticon pictures for arm chair study. The authors have diligently selected fresh speciemens for dissection. This has enhanced the realism of their color picture photographs of the specimens with small identifying labels attached to the anatomical structures facilitates the immediate orientation of the person viewing the pictures. The necessity of putting down a viewer to decode numbers or letters in a manual is thereby obviated. Finally, the pictures are easily projected and can be viewed by a group. The book is a definite asset to everyone interested in practicing orthopaedic surgery." Foreword, Jeese T. Nicholson Rare! Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 68349
