This book was advertised on Amazon.com about 6 years ago. It appears to still be forthcoming.

Does anyone have any news about the book or about Dr. Stainsby?

 

Its looks as though its a no go. I have been looking out for this as well, as Stainsby has some very interesting concepts of foot function that are worthy of further consideration. We are currently in the middle of a project testing one of them. I have heard him lecture on his concepts and read a few of his papers, but without "the book" it is hard to get a full understanding of his concepts.

I do know that Amazon has had it listed as forthcoming for many years and it was listed as forthcoming on the publishers website, but was removed a year or so ago. Shame about that.

 

Thanks Craig,

Big shame, as it seems he was onto something. I think I'll call his publisher and see if I can find out what went wrong. The bigger shame would be if this info never sees print and is lost.

What concept are you testing Craig?

David Stainsby (he's a "Mr" in the UK BTW) was an Orthopaedic Surgeon in Newcastle upon Tyne UK when I last saw him (about 8 years ago).

He came to see me for information on data-collection with a Musgrave vertical loading system. I subsequently arranged a demo of same at the Uni of Durham, to which David attended. I think at that time he, Dr Julian Minns (Med Physics, Dryburn Hospital, Durham) and myself could kind of see where he was going, but also the limitations of a vertical loading system. Played his cards very close to his chest at that time (fair enough - I was a lowly higher degree student).
Very nice guy - and very approachable.
