“More than just clear, concise, and accurate, Dimon’s Anatomy of
the Moving Body also wonderfully expresses the joy of
musculoskeletal anatomic understanding—its marvelous vocabulary and
endlessly fascinating relations of structure and function.”
—John H. M. Austin, MD, Professor of Radiology, College of
Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University
“Anatomy of the Moving Body is a superb work for students and
teachers. Ted Dimon’s work is straightforwardly written,
beautifully illustrated, and put forth with a sensibility of one
who understands not simply how we are organized, but how our
structure is able to move with grace and beauty. The conversational
tone makes the book accessible and the information is conveyed with
a sense not only of where things lie, but how they can operate most
harmoniously. This book is an important contribution to our
understanding of anatomy and an essential part of the training of
those of us who are interested in the human form in balance,
health, and motion.”
—Anne Bluethenthal, Dancer, Teacher, Choreographer
