This book is intended for orthopaedic surgeons, physiotherapists, sports scientists and to anyone who wants to have an original look at the foot that is quite an intriguing structure!"" (M. Mousny, Acta Orthopaedica Belgica, Vol. 72 (4), 2006) ""The authors of this text have produced a first class overview of the evolution and function of the human foot. … This work lives up to its billing and makes a worthy companion to clinical studies. It is well illustrated, well referenced, concise and readable. Highly recommended."" (Matthew Solan, The Journal of Orthopaedic Medicine, Vol. 28 (2), 2006)
