| Book Description | The Physiology of the Joints, conceived and written more than forty years ago by Dr. A. I. Kapandji, deals with biomechanics, a subject until then mentioned only incidentally in textbooks of anatomy.

This is the first of three volumes in the brand new 7th edition.The seventh edition of this volume deals with the upper limb and has been expanded with the inclusion of new diagrams and text. In particular it explains: the concepts of DISI and VISI, employing the author's own "parable of the three friends" the transition to bipedalism automatic swinging of the upper limb during walking the extension of the body schema through the hand prehension during evolutionThis book is intended for medical and physical therapy students; and for practising physicians and surgeons wishing to increase their knowledge of the functional anatomy of the locomotor system. |
| About the Author | Dr Adalbert Kapandji (1928-2019) needs hardly any introduction. He is a globally renowned figure among physical therapists and orthopedic surgeons. After a long career as an orthopedist and hand surgeon, and a member of several international societies in these disciplines, Dr Kapandji devoted his time to the revision of his classic three-volume work Physiology of the Joints, now translated into 11 languages. As well as the text, Dr Kapandji also created the superb color drawings that give this masterwork its distinctive flavor. |
