It is written by twenty-three surgeons, all of whom are or have been in the fracture service of the Massachusetts General Hospital, including such well-known authorities as Smith-Petersen and Scudder.
The book consists of 34 chapters, the first 30 of which deal with the fractures in different regions, from the finger bones to the acetabulum.
