Synopsis:
The unconventional layout and structure of this magnificent book are designed to suggest the equally important roles of art and science in decision making and treatment in orthodontics. Important thematic principles are discussed and demonstrated through allusions to classical writings, historical developments, seminal research findings, famous quotations, unresolved controversies, and references to pertinent medical a nd nonmedical developments. Throughout the book, artistic representations and illustrations of paintings, sculptures, and objets d'art function both to portray an idea or correspond to a theme and to enhance the reader's appreciation of the visual arts. Dental students, orthodontic residents, and general practitioners will interact in unique ways with this fascinating book, but each will come away with a greater appreciation for and understanding of the current state of orthodontic knowledge.
