I just discovered that an out-of-print, but classic book chapter by Anthony Huson is now available for download: Functional Anatomy of the Foot on the internet.
For those of you who have not read this chapter already and/or don't know anything about the author, Anthony Huson, MD, PhD, was the PhD supervisor for both Van Langelaan (Van Langelaan EJ: A kinematical analysis of the tarsal joints: An x-ray photogrammetric study. Acta Orthop. Scand., 54:Suppl. 204, 135-229, 1983) and Benink (Benink, RJ: The constraint mechanism of the human tarsus. Acta Orthop Scand, 56: (Suppl) 215, 1985) in their landmark papers on tarsal motions using x-ray stereophotogrammetry.
In addition, this chapter that you can now download (Huson A: “Functional anatomy of the foot.” Pages 409-431, in Jahss MH (ed): Disorders of the Foot and Ankle. W.B. Saunders Co., Philadelphia, 1991) was a very important reference source for my paper on the Subtalar Joint Axis Location and Rotational Equilibrium Theory of Foot Function (Kirby KA: Subtalar joint axis location and rotational equilibrium theory of foot function. JAPMA, 91:465-488, 2001). Reading Huson's chapter literally gave me the knowledge I needed while writing this paper 13 years ago.
I highly recommend that you all download and read this chapter since this resource is truly one of the modern classics written by one of the great thinkers on foot biomechanics.
