bdclark0423:
As an avid reader of fantasy novels, I find it is universally 
understood that the wand serves as an extension of the human body.  
A wand could be considered just like your finger pointing as 
someone, but just extending and enhancing the force behind that 
power.  Items other than a wand would be: staff, scepter, baton, 
talisman, rod, divining stick, etc.

There are other mediums as well, and these ARE mentioned in the 
canon:  broomstick, portkey, crystal ball, floo powder, hat, 
potions, stone, etc.

And, also good point about repairing Harry's wand with the Elder 
Wand, I completely forgot about that
