Item description from seller

[2], 35, [7] p. Includes illustrations. Most illustrations in color. Bibliography. Cover has some wear and soiling. The Novartis Foundation produces Symposia, in which groups of leading scientists from a range of topics across biology, chemistry and medicine assembled to present papers and discuss results. The Novartis Foundation, originally known as the Ciba Foundation, is well known to scientists and clinicians around the world. From WIkipedia: "The human musculoskeletal system (also known as the locomotor system, and previously the activity system) is an organ system that gives humans the ability to move using their muscular and skeletal systems. The musculoskeletal system provides form, support, stability, and movement to the body. It is made up of the bones of the skeleton, muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other connective tissue that supports and binds tissues and organs together. The musculoskeletal system's primary functions include supporting the body, allowing motion, and protecting vital organs. The skeletal portion of the system serves as the main storage system for calcium and phosphorus and contains critical components of the hematopoietic system. This system describes how bones are connected to other bones and muscle fibers via connective tissue such as tendons and ligaments. The bones provide stability to the body. Muscles keep bones in place and also play a role in the movement of bones. To allow motion, different bones are connected by joints. Cartilage prevents the bone ends from rubbing directly onto each other. Muscles contract to move the bone attached at the joint. There are, however, diseases and disorders that may adversely affect the function and overall effectiveness of the system. These diseases can be difficult to diagnose due to the close relation of the musculoskeletal system to other internal systems. The musculoskeletal system refers to the system having its muscles attached to an internal skeletal system and is necessary for humans to move to a more favorable position. Complex issues and injuries involving the musculoskeletal system are usually handled by a physiatrist (specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation) or an orthopaedic surgeon." From Wikipedia: "Edmund Slocum Crelin, Jr. Ph.D. D. Sc (1923 2004) was Professor Emeritus of Anatomy at Yale University. He was born in Red Bank, New Jersey on April 26, 1923, oldest son of Agatha Bublin Crelin and Edmund S. Crelin, Sr. He was valedictorian of the 1942 senior class at Red Bank High School. After brief service in the United States Navy SeaBees during World War II, he enrolled at Central College in Pella, Iowa where he received his B.A. cum laude in 1947, majoring in biology. He enrolled at Yale University and earned his Ph.D. from Yale University School of Medicine in 1951. Upon graduation from Yale, Crelin joined the School of Medicine faculty, became a Full Professor of Anatomy in 1968, served as department chairman from 1974 to 1984 and was awarded the honor of Professor Emeritus upon his retirement in 1991. Crelin was a member of the American Association of Anatomists, Sigma Xi, AAAS and AMA, served as associate editor of the Anatomical Record from 1968 to 1974 and was an editor for Gray's Anatomy Crelin helped establish the Physician Associates program at the Yale University School of Medicine. As chairman of the Human Growth and Development Study Unit, he was instrumental in the genesis of Yale s neonatal and ultrasound units. Crelin was a consultant to the Newborn Special Care unit of the Yale-New Haven Hospital. Crelin was a leading research scientist; his 159 published articles in medical and scientific journals cover cell cancer and bone research, development and physiology of connective tissues, human development and anthropological evolution of the human foot and the vocal tract. He was the author of three books. His self-illustrated Anatomy of the Newborn, which took 6 years to complete, was the first.
