Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Disabilities of the Locomotor Apparatus: The Result of War Wounds
Of the war, immediately useful to those to whom the wounded were to be confided. Fixed principles existed in all the sciences auxiliary to the work Of the surgeon, but our scientific resources were not immediately available at the outset of the great campaign; scientific work bearing on wound prob lems had not been arranged in a manner adapted to the requirements - indeed, the requirements were not fully foreseen the workers in the various fields were isolated, or isolated themselves, pursuing new researches rather than concentrating their powerful forces upon the one great quest.
However brilliant the triumphs of surgery may be -and that they have been of surpassing splendour no one will be found to deny - experiences Of the war have already produced a mass of facts sufficient to suggest the complete remodelling of our methods of education and research.
