Presents the major advances in the field since the last edition in 1992. New chapters cover amputee care in wartime, the role of the Krukenberg proceedure in developing countries, the rise of the amputee consumer movement, and the rapidly expanding role of sports and recreation for amputees, as well as the more controversial topics of osseointegration and transplantation. The major influence of orthopaedic surgeons in the development of both amputation surgery and prosthetics is noted in the greatly expanded chapter on the history of these fields. A chapter on absence of the lumbar spine and sacrum has been added, as well as a chapter on surgical revision.
