Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Very good example of this rare book by Yale Castlio. Written at some point between 1924 (after graduating from the Kansas City College of Osteopathic Medicine and where he became professor of Osteopathic Manipulation and Methods) and 1937 (where his name was no longer in the AOA directory). I have guessed a date of 1930, as he wrote another book 'Collected Papers' in 1935. The front & back book covers have a few very light minor marks. The corners and edges of the binding show light signs of use. There is light foxing to the page edges but otherwise in excellent condition. There is an owners ink signature on the front inner cover.
