Synopsis

A textbook for students of physical or occupational therapy, or other rehabilitative health-science professions. Integrates the clinical and scientific dimensions of the motor system, which most curricula separate so thoroughly that students cannot see the relationship between them. Discusses somatic activity from the cellular and tissue level, through motor control at the spinal cord, to the complex supraspinal controls. Emphasizes functional considerations.
