Item description from seller

Second Edition. - London, Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1912, 8°, XXXI, 883; XXIV, 867, (1) pp., "illustrated by 70 plates and over 1000 figures, of which 400 are original, and by notes of 54 cases", 2 orig. Leinenbände. Greatly expanded second Edition! In 1912 Alfred Herbert Tubby (1862-1930) "published a new edition of his text-book with the ominous title Deformities including Diseases of the Bones and Joints. Sixteen years had passed since its first appearance and during the interval the whole field of orthopaedic surgery had greatly advanced, with a corresponding literature dealing with it. He had been obliged to rewrite the whole work and to arrange the various subjects according to their etiology and pathology rather than on a regional classification as in the previous edition. Such was the accumulated material that the author had to issue the work in two large volumes, which contained seventy plates and more than a thousand illustrations, of which four hundred were original. In 1896 Tubby protested at the exclusion of diseases of bones and joints, apart from the spine, from the province of orthopaedic surgery. In 1912, in the following words, he boldly declared that orthopaedic surgery is the surgery of the entire locomotor apparatus : ' ' In England, contrary to the custom abroad, works written on ' Orthopaedic Surgery,' although they have dealt with tuberculosis of the spine, have not included tuberculosis and many other forms of diseases of the bones and joints elsewhere. And this in spite of the obvious fact that in the practice of Orthopaedic Surgery a surgeon is constantly called upon to deal with such morbid conditions and their results. It has been my attempt to remedy this somewhat illogical state of affairs, and to treat the subject from its actual standpoint which is the surgery of the entire locomotor apparatus, dealing not only with actual deformities, but also with those morbid processes which involve potential deformity. It is not claimed that the scope of the orthopaedic surgeon's work is thereby enlarged, since he undertakes already the treatment of malformations and deformities of the muscular and osseous systems, which demands a full acquaintance with the pathology of such conditions and with the essential therapeutic methods. A considerable portion of the work has therefore been devoted to a description of arthritic and osseous diseases, as indicated by the amplification of the former title into ' Deformities, including Diseases of the Bones and Joints : a Text-Book of Orthopaedic Surgery.' " This publication had the appearance of a work of reference; the whole world literature had been well sifted, to which Tubby's many contributions were added. Each subject was well balanced; etiology, pathology and treatment were given proper consideration. It was the best work on orthopaedic surgery in any language and has scarcely been equalled since. The clear descriptive power of the author was not least of its features. Its reading still imparts a peculiar delight and that not without profit." ARTHUR ROCYN JONES, JBJ35B, FEBRUARY 1953, pp.139-143 Garrison & Morton No. 4366 (1st. Ed. 1896).
