I did a little googlin' for terms like "human kinematics" and the like, but haven't found exactly what I am looking for yet. I am looking for a table of data giving me the degrees of freedom in the human body with min and max angles and limits. If anyone already knows of a good source for this information, it would be greatly appreciated. Till then, I'll just keep googlin'

can't find the link, but there is a lot of interest in this direction in the computer graphics field. also try "human factors engineering".
Not quite what you asked for, but may be useful

Thank you, book references are also very much appreciated.

Try a search on "gait analysis". Years ago I worked for a prosthetic firm which dealt with measuring range of motion.
