Now in its fourth edition 'Tyldesley and Grieve's Muscles, Nerves
and Movement' has established itself as the leading textbook for
the study of movement by occupational therapists. The book provides
students with a sound understanding of the way in which bones,
joints, muscles and nerves allow the body to perform movement
during daily activities.
Early chapters provide a foundation for the study of movement,
with the complexity of detail increasing as the book progresses.
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. Later chapters consider the integration
of sensory and motor processes for the planning and execution of
movement.
This fourth edition has been extensively updated and revised.
Highly illustrated and now in full colour throughout the book also
includes:
* Case histories with self assessment exercises
* Summary boxes
* Key terms
* Practice notepads
