I have been asked by a few podiatric colleagues recently to provide them with a list of recommended textbooks to bring them "up to speed" on current biomechanics and engineering terminology and theory. What I am providing here is a list of biomechanics and engineering reference textbooks that sit on my library shelf and most of which I have found to be very helpful in gaining greater understanding of biomechanics, orthosis treatment and engineering over the years. Possibly some of you can add your favorite biomechanics textbooks to this list along with a short review.
