" This book was first published in 1917. Its original object was to provide a suitable text-book the students of massage and medical gymnastics, many of whom were wishing to take their part in the restoration of the sick and wounded during and after that the Great War of 1914-1918. Since then physical methods have been universally continued and a variety of different forms of treatment have been added to those already in use. Our country is again at war and more than ever it is the skill and care of the trained worker needed to help those who have been injured by enemy action." -- from the preface to the sixth edition, page VII.
