About the Book

This book has established itself as the leading textbook for the study of movement by occupational therapists. Two senior tutors in occupational therapy act as consultants on this new third edition. The early chapters provide a foundation for the study of movement with the complexity of detail increasing as the book progresses. The functional anatomy is related to the movements of daily living and is supported by activities for experiencing and observing the way we perform everyday tasks. The later chapters consider the integration of sensory and motor processes in the nervous system for the planning and execution of movement. Clinical note-pads link the basic knowledge to the clinical features of common orthopaedic and neurological problems.

Review :
Review comments from the 2nd edition: "Its...focus on movement within daily activity makes it an especially valuable text for the occupational therapy student and a useful refresher for the practising, returning or refocusing practitioner" British Journal of Occupational Therapy, January 1997 "I would recommend this book as a useful support text for undergraduate physiotherapists studying kinesiology" Physiotherapy, April 1997
