Take Off Your Shoes and Walk

Abstract

"Babies appear to have flat feet because of the thick layer of baby fat present in every infant's arch. . . ." "Because of poor feet, countless of Americans have posture distortions, are usually fatigued and become prone to degenerative illnesses." These two statements, taken from Dr. Wikler's book, suggest the dual aspects of this book—the eminently good, common-sense discussion on foot wear and normal development of feet and the extraordinary loose thinking about the relation of foot problems to general health.
