What is The Physiology of the Joints : Annotated Diagrams of the Mechanics of the Human Joints about?

<p>This text provides the reader an understanding of the mechanics of the joints with the help of diagrams rather than text. The commentaries are short (on double page spreads); the quality, clarity and simplicity of the drawings and diagrams are such that they could be understood without any verbal explanation. The drawings are unusually clear&#58; everything which could hinder understanding has been removed and one feels that the author has foreseen the difficulties which the student could encounter. Each time a problem arises it is explained by a diagram which, though simplified, is extremely clear.<p><ul><li>New functional tests for the shoulder, the elbow and the hand</li><li>Explanation of why the forearm has two bones</li><li>A logical and mathematical explanation of the so called CODMANN Paradox</li><li>New conceptions of the physiology of the carpus</li><li>Clear explanation of notions as DISI and VISI for the pathology of the carpus</li><li>New cotation of the thumb opposition and counter-opposition, presently integrated in the International Evaluation</li><li>Fundamental notion of the complex grip-plus-action, very important for the evaluation of the function of the hand
