Ligamentous Articular Strain: Osteopathic Manipulative Techniques for the Body
The osteopathic profession has developed many treatment modalities and approaches to manipulation Ligamentous articular strain is the name given by William G. Sutherland, D.O., the founder of cranial osteopathy, to a group of techniques that he used for treating the body outside the core axis of the craniosacral system. The term has since come to refer to a wide variety of techniques that engage the body's own healing mechanisms in a relatively direct manner. For over thirty years the Dallas Osteopathic Study Group, originally under the tutelage of Rollin Becker, D.O., has been exploring this type of manipulation. Ligamentous Articular Strain is the distillation of their work. The introductory chapters address the historical development of this approach, and review some of its scientific underpinnings. The remaining chapters are devoted to an examination of the body, area by area, from the feet to the shoulders, describing and depicting effective manipulative techniques. Ligamentous Articular Strain provides clear instructions and vivid illustrations which will enable the trained practitioner to quickly gain proficiency in these techniques. It also presents a cogent approach to working with the concepts of the key lesion and the bowstring, first developed by Rollin Becker..

Biology of the Synovial Joint
This unique collection of reviews has arisen due to the belief of the Editors that joints need to be studied as a whole organ. Too often workers concentrate only on one tissue without considering the effects that a pathological change or injury in one part may have upon the whole joint. The synovial joint is a complex unit composed of many separate parts, such as cartilage, bone, ligament, and synovium, all of which play a role in the functionality of the whole. These tissues must exist and work together in close, and often strenuous, conditions. Therefore a certain level of interaction is to be expected. The authors have been chosen for their wide-ranging expertise, thus contributions range from the molecular and biochemical, through development and cell biology, to histological, anatomical, and clinical studies. Together they provide a comprehensive and useful source of reference for anyone interested in the biology of joints..

Knee Ligaments: Structure, Function, Inquiry and Repair
This volume comprehensively reviews laboratory and clinical research on the structure and function of knee ligaments, the mechanics and kinematics of the knee joint, and the response of ligaments to injury and highlights recent advances in ligament reconstruction surgery and postoperative care. In the opening section, Dr. Daniel describes his approach to knee ligament surgery and patient management. This is followed by extensive studies on the anatomy, structure, chemistry, and physiology of ligaments; their material and structural properties; their sensory function; the ways in which they contribute to the stability of the knee joint; and the ability of muscles to compensate for loss of ligament function. A major portion of the book details in vivo experiments on ligament injury and repair, including autograft remodeling. The final section presents clinical studies on the natural history of the ligament-injured knee and the complications of ligament surgery and describes new techniques for clinical measurement of knee stability..
