Abstract

Everywhere I visited, both in England and in other parts of Europe, I met with wonderful hospitality and friendliness. Generally our common language was English, and I felt thoroughly ashamed of my poor efforts at speaking other languages.

During my tour in England, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Denmark, Norway and Sweden I heard many new ideas propounded, and have seen many new and different methods of treatment. In particular I have been able to compare thoughts on such subjects as tuberculosis of the spine, congenital dislocation of the hip, osteoarthritis of the hip, scoliosis, many aspects of trauma, Perthes' disease, hand surgery, poliomyelitis, paraplegia, the treatment of cerebral palsy, rehabilitation of patients suffering from all kinds of orthopaedic disabilities, and surgical appliances. I am very grateful indeed to the British Orthopaedic Association for making this six-months' tour possible.
