Nach den Erkenntnissen der Autorin existierten in der griechischen Antike mindestens zwei verschiedene Zahlweisen der ersten und deshalb auch der folgenden Olympiaden. Durch die Argumente ihrer Arbeit erfahren so manche umstrittenen Daten eine neue chronologische Einordnung. Werden ihre Schlussfolgerungen akzeptiert, ist vieles aus der archaischen griechischen Geschichte neu zu schreiben. In jedem Fall legt hier die Autorin, Sch lerin von Professor P. J. Rhodes, eine ebenso detaillierte wie komplexe, sorgfaltige wie originelle und wissenschaftlich mutige Arbeit vor, die auf Jahre hinaus eine rege Forschungsdiskussion nach sich ziehen wird.

Developmental biology of normal bone and cartilage including histogenesis, molecular/gene and biomechanical aspects is updated and expanded. The book outlines the biology of: bone repair with differing mechanical environments; cartilage repair at articular and physeal sites; and distraction osteogenesis. The generously illustrated text provides an in-depth presentation of the interplay between normal developmental biology, abnormal pathologic states and the influence of operative and non-operative orthopedic interventions on childhood orthopedic deformity. Thirty-four principles underlying the development, progression and management of skeletal deformity in the growing child are defined. Orthopedic management including surgical treatment is discussed for: skeletal dysplasias; epiphyseal growth plate fracture-separations; lower extremity length discrepancies; and deformities of joints and epiphyses due to metabolic, inflammatory, infectious, hematologic, and neoplastic disorders. Treatments are related to extent of deformity, remodeling post-surgery and possible recurrence. This 2nd edition of Pediatric Orthopedic Deformities has been expanded to cover more regions and disorders and is being presented in 3 volumes.
