Ta, I recognize those names you listed but I've never read a book by any of them, in fact I don't think I've ever read a book on figure drawing, the closest I've gotten to that is a book on anatomy.
The ellipse technique i use for figures and gestures is actually something i came up with myself from experimentation, its part based on real muscles and bones, and partly just on what feels right to me. probably not the greatest explanation ever :p
