520 _a"The regulation of movement in the organisms which have a nervous system is known as motor control. It consists of both reflexes as well as deliberate movement. Biomechanics refers to the study of movements in a living body, which involves the manner in which bones, ligaments, muscles and tendons collaborate for producing movement. It encompasses not only the structure and movement of muscles and bones but also the mechanics of renal function, blood circulation and other body functions. The human body comprises many joints and muscles that work in tandem. The nervous system needs to combine multimodal sensory input in order to regulate movement. Furthermore, it must elicit the required signals for recruiting muscles to complete a task. Motor control then initiates, directs and grades deliberate voluntary movement while also regulating movement related mechanisms. This book includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to motor control and human movement. The topics included herein are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers"-- Back cover.
