Neurophysiological basis of movement

Neurophysiological Basis of Movement is the only contemporary comprehensive textbook on the neurophysiology of voluntary movement: The book also covers relevant information from the study of biomechanics, anatomy, control theory, and motor disorders. It emphasizes neurophysiological mechanisms that apply to the processes of voluntary movements. Several motor disorders are discussed, including spinal cord injury and Parkinson's disease, as well as issues related to motor rehabilitation. Readers also will appreciate the references that accompany each of five "Worlds" and a glossary for the entire text.
