This new work, like all books by the same author, is a vital and personal work, conceived with a didactic intention. At a time when all physicians are dealing, or will shortly have to deal, with the after-effects of wounds received in war, the question of sequelae presents itself, and will present itself more and more. What has become—and what will become—of all those who, in the hospitals at the front or in the rear, have hastily received initial treatment, and what is to be done to complete a treatment often inaugurated under difficult circumstances?
ARTIFICIAL LIMBS. By A. Broca, Professor in the Faculty of Medicine, Paris, and Dr. Ducroquet, Surgeon at the Rothschild Hospital. Edited and translated by R. C. Elmslie, M.S., F.R.C.S., etc.; Orthopædic Surgeon to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, and Surgeon to Queen Mary's Auxiliary Hospital, Roehampton; Major R.A.M.C.(T.). With 210 illustrations.

The authors of this book have sought not to describe this or that piece of apparatus—more or less "newfangled"—but to explain the anatomical, physiological, practical and technical conditions which an artificial arm or leg should fulfil. It is, if we may so call it, a manual of applied mechanics written by physicians, who have constantly kept in mind the anatomical conditions and the professional requirements of the artificial limb.
