Abstract
A brief film shows the function of the human hand, wrist, and critical apposable thumb. An abstract film suggests that the reason for the shape of the human body and the economical structure of the bones is to provide the greatest results with the least energy. Dr. Borden discusses the complicated structure and rotation of the human wrists, forearms, and shoulders. A concluding film presents a child's development of hand skills.
