Dear biomech-L ers:
Thanks for the great suggestions. Once I started reading, I
realized I'd read some of these books before and it helped
to remember where to find info I need now, other suggestions
were new offerings. Thanks again, those votes are still coming
in, but here's what I've got thus far. (In fact if the reference-flurry
keeps up, it may be a while before I post the rest, but I'll
keep reading)
Take care and have a good winter.
Regards,
Cheryl
