Download the PDF to view the article, as well as its associated figures and tables. Abstract A knowledge of the action of muscles and their reeducation following disease is of primary interest not only to the orthopedic surgeon but also to the neurologist.

The book begins by a statement of principles. This part, which includes fifty-five pages, is an excellent presentation of how muscle paralyses should be tested and how treatment should be applied. For example, the author makes the statement that in poliomyelitis no massage or electricity should be applied until recovery has taken place.
