Not unexpectedly since Andry coined the term Orthopedics the world has undergone a drastic change! New knowledge new techniques new technology! The fundamental principles however do not change and that is why they remain fundamental! Andry emphasized the prevention of deformities and we understand this better. Yet our preventive efforts are second to our therapeutic ones! A radical change in our mind set is imperative! We need to have surveillance for preventable problems. Early detection equates to simpler and better management! Things need to change for the better. Orthopedic surgeons need to become social scientists and harbingers of change!

Each one opens a facet of culled knowledge and wisdom gained from the experience of a life time dealing with different problems in Orthopedics. We hope you will be thrilled to read their offerings which should give you a comprehensive background of the subject and the current philosophy of management.
