This Atlas is principally based on the Brush Foundation Study of Human Growth and Development, conceived in 1929 by Professor T. Wingate Todd of Western Reserve University School of Medicine. This intensive study collected data on the maturation of human anatomy through the meticulous X-raying of a series of research subjects enrolled in the study as juveniles―some as young as three months―and thereafter routinely weighed and measured at three-month to one-year intervals, depending on their age. This Atlas utilizes not only the X-ray films to which Todd had access but, also, those which were obtained in the six years subsequent to Todd's publication of his Atlas of Skeletal Maturation of the Hand . The X-ray standards in the present volume are, therefore, the first to be based exclusively on the research of the Brush Foundation Study.

Uno strumento indispensabile in Pediatria e Adolescentologia
L'Atlante di Greulich e Pyle ha la singolare caratteristica di appartenere già alla Storia della Medicina (della Pediatria, della Radiologia e della Auxologia) nonostante sia ancora oggi molto usato nella pratica clinica e, aspetto molto importante, nella ricerca clinica. E' un'opera che da 60 anni aiuta il Pediatra auxologo e endocrinologo nella valutazione delle due principali dimensioni della crescita: l'"ampiezza di crescita" e il "tempo di crescita", in pratica della crescita staturo-ponderale e dello sviluppo sessuale dei bambini, dei fanciulli e degli adolescenti, semplificando di molto l'approccio ai problemi clinici di questa età. Nonostante i limiti del metodo descritto in questo Atlante, limiti peraltro presenti in ogni metodologia scientifica, e nonostante lo sviluppo nei decenni scorsi di altri metodi quali quello di Tanner, TW2 e TW3, e quello di A. Roche, Fels, e, più recentemente, di metodi di valutazione dell'età ossea "automatizzati", conserva ancora un alto valore scientifico, didattico e pratico.

Radiographic Atlas of Skeletal Development of the Hand and Wrist
This atlas is a must for forensic practitioners who perform age estimation based on skeletal development. Every library should have at least one copy. This atlas by Greulich and Pyle is a classic. Of course it is even better when read together with other atlases recommended automatically by eBay! I am glad and extremely happy to receive this copy.
