Review: "The Human Foot, a collaboration between an orthopedic surgeon and a paleoanthropologist, starts by tracing the evolutionary history of feet all the way from their beginnings as fins to modern human feet. It presents the foot, a neglected but important region, taking into account advances in the study of evolution, imaging, physiology and biomechanics." "The text is an invaluable resource for orthopedic surgeons, physiotherapists, sports scientist, and podiatrists."--BOOK JACKET.
