Produktbeschreibung

The present work aims at establishing as exhaustively as possible the math ematical, anatomical and clinical bases of the law of bone remodelling and the consequent functional bone shape and remodelling force. Another aim of this work consists of considering the applications of the law of bone re modelling not only to bone but also to many other fields of medical science and to certain questions in the natural sciences. I am indebted to the Royal Prussian Academy of Sciences, whose help made the publication of this book possible. I would also like to thank the many scientists who kindly put at my disposal valuable specimens from their collections to enable me to study the law of bone remodelling: Prof. Ackermann, Halle, von Berg mann, Berlin, Billroth, Vienna, H.

Autorenporträt

Geboren am 16.9.1834 in Quedlinburg; gestorben am 3.6.1910 in Berlin-Charlottenburg.
Der Sohn eines Tuchfabrikanten besuchte das Gymnasium in Quedlinburg. Nach dem Studium der Philosophie und Wirtschaftswissenschaften in Berlin und mehreren Bildungsreisen übernahm er das väterliche Geschäft, gab es aber nach finanziellen Verlusten 1869 auf zugunsten der von ihm gegründeten Quedlinburger "Harz-Zeitung". Für seine Teilnahme am Krieg gegen Frankreich 1870/71 als Landwehroffizier vor Toul wurde er ausgezeichnet. 1872 ließ er sich als freier Schriftsteller in Berlin nieder. 1884 wurde er Ehrenbürger von Hameln; 1904 erhielt er den Professorentitel.
