Add to basket26 cm. Thick 8vo. xxxi, [1], 800 pp. Color frontis., 712 illus. (some color), index. Original green blind and gilt-stamped cloth. Signature of Dr. A. R. Allen; bookplate of Frederick A. Frye. Very good. "Dr. Willard soon discovered that his true passion lied in orthopaedics and thus led the effort to organize the nation's first…freestanding Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania. He was appointed lecturer in orthopaedic surgery in 1887, clinical professor of orthopaedic surgery in 1889, and professor of orthopaedic surgery in 1903. His contributions were instrumental in the establishment of both the orthopaedic ward in the Agnew wing of University Hospital and the Infirmary for Nervous Disease at Penn. At various points in his career, he served as chairman of the surgical section of the American Medical Association, president of the American Surgical Association, and president of the American Orthopaedic Association. One of his crowning achievements was the establishment of the Widener Memorial School for Crippled Children â" an institution dedicated to the education and training of children maimed by disease. In recognition of his work, the University appointed DeForest Willard the first chairman of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery â" an office which he held from 1889 to the time of his death in 1910. Despite his numerous professional accomplishments, Dr. Willard preferred to be remembered for his acts of kindness to his fellow man rather than for his awards and accolades." Voleti & Levin.
