The British School of Osteopathy is the oldest and largest teaching institution of osteopathy in the UK. To mark the one hundred years of its history, the book traces its chequered history and the characters involved from when it was simply providing vocational training and awarding its own diploma to it becoming a mature, higher education institution with Taught Degree Awarding Powers. It is a story of incredible achievement despite sometimes almost insurmountable obstacles to its progress.
