Summary: To "train to be straight" is the original meaning of the term "orthopaedics," which was coined over 250 years ago by Nicolas Andry. But how can  the "trainers" straighten the crooked bones of children? Should we simply let nature take its course in the growth and development of children?  Or do we need splints, braces, corsets, or even surgical operations, for straightening what is crooked? Do skewfeet stop Cinderella from turning into a princess? Are children warped if they are knock-kneed or bow-legged?  Written in an entertaining style, this bookPPN: PPN: 1649028784Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-SMI | ZDB-2-SME
