Few individuals have contributed as much as the late Dr. Charles Burstone to the development of orthodontic biomechanics as a scientific discipline. To say that Dr. Burstone, who passed away in February at age 86, was a prolific writer would be a gross understatement. He published more than 250 journal articles, including many here in JCO, where he was an Associate Editor from 1979 to 2003. He was legendary around the world for his unequaled knowledge of the art and science of orthodontics. Although he has been eulogized frequently during the past year (see The Editor's Corner, March 2015), more reasons to celebrate his many accomplishments continue to surface.
