"As he proves emphatically with his new collection, T.D. Johnston is clearly one of the modern masters of the short story."-James Dodson, Editor, O.

Johnston story is to plunge head first into the world of unforgettable characters, 3-D experiences, and stunning surprises." Memorable in the fashion of a favorite music album, Friday Afternoon and Other Stories is an eclectic series of powerful tales which, in the words of author Eric Witchey, "focus on the American experience in a way that reveals the many facets of our souls."

This book sheds light on the various mechanisms and systems involved in the gradual decline of the injured joint toward manifest osteoarthritis. Published in collaboration with ISAKOS, this volume appeals to all stakeholders in surgical orthopaedics and sports medicine.
