Omschrijving

Dress and Care of the Feet Showing Their Natural Shape and Construction is a comprehensive guide dedicated to the anatomy, health, and proper treatment of the human foot. Authored in the late 19th century, this book offers a detailed exploration of the natural structure of the feet, emphasizing the importance of maintaining their original form for overall well-being. The text delves into the common problems caused by ill-fitting footwear and improper care, providing practical advice on selecting shoes that support the foot’s natural shape. It discusses the detrimental effects of fashionable but harmful footwear, such as pointed toes and high heels, and advocates for designs that promote comfort and health. The book is richly illustrated with diagrams and drawings that clarify the anatomy of the foot, the mechanics of walking, and the impact of various shoe styles. It covers topics such as the prevention and treatment of corns, bunions, and other common foot ailments, and offers guidance on daily hygiene, nail care, and exercises to strengthen the feet. The author also addresses the needs of children, emphasizing the importance of proper footwear from an early age to prevent lifelong deformities. Dress and Care of the Feet is both a practical manual and a passionate argument for respecting the natural design of the human body. It combines medical insight with social commentary, critiquing the fashion trends of the era and urging readers to prioritize health over appearance. This book remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in podiatry, historical fashion, or personal health, offering timeless advice on achieving comfort, mobility, and foot health through informed choices and attentive care.
