diagrams ratherthan of a text.  \nThe commentaries are short;the quality,clarity and simplicity of the drawings and diagramsare such that they could be understood without any verbal explanation.Although Dr A.Kapandjifirst gives us diagrams taken from classical treatises on anatomy,he adds drawings which are verymuch his own.With his very great knowledge of anatomy and his gift for faithful simplification hecan show by these drawings the mechanics of the joint being studied.  \nDr A.Kapandji of course intends this book to be helpful to physiotherapists but the studentof medicine will find it a necessary and very useful complement to the university course in generalphysiology of the joints.Surgeons will find ideas of
