Andrew T. Still's thorough account of osteopathic medicine details
the discoveries and cases which contributed to the development of
osteopathy. Written and published at the end of the nineteenth
century, Philosophy of Osteopathy is a manual which attempts to
overview the major aspects of the osteopathic discipline. Although
much of Still's understanding is outdated in comparison to modern
medicine, his accessible descriptions made this book a valuable
reference text for aspiring osteopaths and physiotherapists for
many years following its original publication. Chapters generally
concern distinct areas of the body, as well as some theoretical
questions which - at the time - hadn't received an answer. Andrew
T. Still regards good osteopathy as an art form, and thus does not
shy away from a passionate tone during parts of the text. Unusual
subjects, such as the uses of earwax and the possibility that man
has undergone a slow decline in his bodily resilience, lend color
to the book.
