Abstract
THE healing of fractured bones in wild animals (mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians) reveals the astounding adaptability of the natural forces of repair and the extent to which widely separated fragments can be joined up under natural conditions without the surgeon's assistance. The book is illustrated by numerous photographs and radiographs. In the bibliography of fifty-eight titles, fifty-six are German and none of them British, although, from the time of John Hunter, British anatomists and surgeons have taken special interest in this subject.
