The Human Foot: Its Evolution, Physiology And Functional Disorders is the historic and seminal work from 1935 by Dudley J Morton. The chief purpose of this work is to identify and to analyze the primary factors of functional disorders of the foot. The author approaches this topic from an evolutionary perspective of foot development from the earliest terrestrial vertebrates to reptiles, to early mammals, to early primates and to humans.
The book is now quite rare and good quality examples of the book can be quite expensive.
