Reseña del editor:
The picture on the front cover of this book depicts a young man pulling a fishnet, a task of practical relevance for many centuries. It is a complex task, involving load transmission throughout the body, intricate balance, and eye head-hand coordination. The quest toward understanding how we perform such tasks with skill and grace, often in the presence of unpredictable pertur bations, has a long history. However, despite a history of magnificent sculptures and drawings of the human body which vividly depict muscle ac tivity and interaction, until more recent times our state of knowledge of human movement was rather primitive. During the past century this has changed; we now have developed a considerable database regarding the com position and basic properties of muscle and nerve tissue and the basic causal relations between neural function and biomechanical movement. Over the last few decades we have also seen an increased appreciation of the impor tance of musculoskeletal biomechanics: the neuromotor system must control movement within a world governed by mechanical laws. We have now col lected quantitative data for a wealth of human movements. Our capacity to understand the data we collect has been enhanced by our continually evolving modeling capabilities and by the availability of computational power. What have we learned? This book is designed to help synthesize our current knowledge regarding the role of muscles in human movement. The study of human movement is not a mature discipline.
Reseña del editor:
The study of biomechanics and movements organization has become progressively more complex since the development of advanced computers and improved measurement techniques. In Multiple Muscle Systems - Biomechanics and Movements Organization, Jack M. Winters and Savio L-Y. Woo present a critical and exhaustive assessment of the relationships between muscle properties, musculoskeletal dynamics, and neuromotor organizational strategies. Respected leaders in this growing interdisciplinary field have contributed both theoretical and applied material to this volume. The book begins with a definitive treatment of muscle mechanics and modelling approaches for musculoskeletal movements systems, and continues with the principles underlying movements organization. It synthesizes existing information into a novel and cohesive characterization of biomechanics and movements organization, and offers many fresh perspectives of this rapidly expanding discipline. With its timely, up-to-date nature, it will appeal to professionals and re- searchers in the fields of biomechanics, biomedical engineering, physical education, and medicine, and to graduate students with an interest in bioengineering, physiology, and neuroscience.
