Motility, relating to the vital energy of the human tissues, is a basic concept in osteopathy. This book presents a simple and systematic definition of motility, based on the movement of all of the body's structures during embryogenesis. Those initial movements, intrinsic to the energy of the tissues, are the essence of motility and, as such, they are crucial to the tissues' normal movement. These fundamental ideas expand the osteopath's clinical intervention techniques and deepen the understanding of both the bases of osteopathy and of human functions. Illustrated in two colours with clear and original line drawings and photographs, this book offers the new model of practice developed by Alain Auberville over his 30 years of experimentation and teaching; it is presented here by Andree Aubin, who has linked Alain Auberville's approach to classic osteopathic concepts in order to facilitate its integration into regular clinical practice.
La motilité, associée à la présence de la vitalité dans les tissus du corps humain, est un concept de base en ostéopathie. Ce livre propose une définition simple et systématique de la motilité basée sur les déplacements de toutes les structures du corps pendant la période de l'embryogénèse. Ces mouvements initiaux, intrinsèques à l'énergie des tissus, répondent à l'essence de la définition de la motilité et, à ce titre, sont une composante essentielle du mouvement normal des tissus du corps. L'ostéopathe peut utiliser ces notions fondamentales dans ses interventions cliniques afin d'enrichir son arsenal thérapeutique et d'approfondir sa compréhension des fondements de l'ostéopathie et du fonctionnement de l'humain. Illustré de façon originale, ce livre présente un nouveau modèle de pratique qui a été conçu par Alain Auberville à la suite de 30 ans d'expérimentations et de transmission par l'enseignement. Mis en texte par Andrée Aubin, ce modèle a été relié aux concepts ostéopathiques classiques afin de faciliter son intégration dans la pratique clinique quotidienne.

A beautifully illustrated retrospective of Art Nouveau architect and designer Hector Guimard, positioning him at the forefront of the modernist movement The aesthetic of architect Hector Guimard (1867-1942) has long characterized French Art Nouveau in the popular imagination. This groundbreaking book showcases all aspects of his artistry and recognizes the fundamental modernity of his work.

Guimard broke away fro...
