Neuromechanics of Human Movement, Fifth Edition, draws on the disciplines of neurophysiology and physics to explore how the nervous system controls the actions of muscles to produce human motion. This contemporary approach is much different from the traditional approach, which focuses solely on mechanics and does not consider the role of the sensorimotor system in the control of human movement. Significant content updates in the fifth edition presents information relevant for both research and clinical environments, including more contemporary examples throughout the text and a new chapter on movement analysis.
