Selected from presentations at the 1994 meeting of the Academy in New Orleans, 48 lectures synthesize the currently accepted understanding on a range of topics in orthopaedic surgery both for students and for veteran surgeons in continuing education. They cover metabolic bone disease, several specific sites such as the spine and the wrist, fracture treatment, kinetics, and computers. The black-and-white illustrations are of very high quality.
