Whenever possible, clinical applications of the information are stressed. Current Advances in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery: Orthogpathic Surgery, volume 5. Shelton DW, Irby WB (eds), with 13 contributors. St Louis, CV Mosby, 1986, 357 pages, illustrated.
This is an extensive compilation of information divided into 24 sections, each containing concise discussions of various disease entities written by different authors.

This series of books focuses on areas of current interest in the specialty. The nine chapters of this volume are devoted to important aspects of orthognathic surgery. The topics include fundamental principles, orthodontic and anesthetic considerations, the role of the total maxillary alveolar osteotomy, genioplasty, implications for preprosthetic surgery, reconstruction in the patient with cleft palate, and treatment of hemifacial microsomia. The chapters are clearly written and well illustrated and referenced.

Each technique is presented, diagrammatically and the results are illustrated by case reports.
Physical fitness is the common bond among the 49 men and women between the ages of 49 and 100 years who were interviewed for this book. These unique and interesting personalities are living proof that age alone is not a measure of creativity or productivity.
Surgery of the Mouth and Jaws. Moore JR (ed), with 18 contributors. Boston, Blackwell Scientific Publications, 1985, 870 pages, illustrated.
