{"product_id":"the-neuroscience-of-human-movement","title":"The Neuroscience Of Human Movement","description":"\u003cp\u003eCovering the basics of neuroscience  including a chapter on the vocabulary of the nervous system (a great brush-up even for those who have some prior knowledge of neuroscience)  this excellent reference eases the student through more difficult topics suchas reflexes  eye-hand coordination  and neural control of running and walking. Each chapter begins with an outline  and a comprehensive glossary rounds out the book. More than 50 original line drawings illustrate key concepts.   Presents difficult information on neuroscience in an easy-to-understand manner.  Explains the major organizational subdivisions of the central nervous system briefly  with an emphasis on structures and structural relationships that impact motor control.  Presents typical spinal cord and brainstem reflexes involved in motor control and discusses the methods for using these reflexes to influence strength gains and muscle flexibility.  Includes the most current research on the neural control of hand-eye coordination  discussed in relation to its importance to rehabilitation medicine and childrens physical education.  Chapter on the neural control of human locomotion integrates concepts in previous chapters to show the harmony of neural interaction that is needed to complete any motor act.  Includes the latest research (by the author) showing that humans can consciously alter reflex activity and the impact of these findings on athletic performance  recovery from injury  and motor learning.  Concepts are illustrated with anecdotes and examples making difficult information less intimidating and easier to grasp.  Includes topics like hand-eye coordination and human locomotion  applying neuroscience to everyday activities and making highly theoretical information useful.  More than 50 original line drawings illustrate key concepts.  Chapter outlines give students an overview of the information to be presented.  Comprehensive glossary provides an easy review of difficult terminology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44954594869301,"sku":"ByrdShop_0815153716","price":58.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780815153719.jpg?v=1770276904","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-neuroscience-of-human-movement","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
