Abstract

El origen de “asentamiento de huesos” -tratamiento y restitución de articulaciones- se pierde en la niebla de la antigüedad, y en el desarrollo histórico de la medicina hay muchas referencias sobre la práctica de “asentamiento de huesos”, tanto por practicantes cualificados como no cualificados que hayan tenido preparación formal en los métodos aceptados.

Almost to a man the profession decided that Thomas was not a gentleman
