Progress in Motor Control: Bernstein's traditions in movement studies
Contributors of the 16 papers were charged with reviewing urgent problems of motor control rather than reporting on their own research, in order to produce a broad reference for professionals and graduate students in the field. Four of them worked directly with Nikolai Berstein (1896-1966), the Russian scientist who first worked in the field and wh.
L' Inconscient aux mille visages
L’inconscient est-il seulement le domaine des pulsions sexuelles ? Est-il vraiment créé par le refoulement? Est-il réservé à la psychanalyse ? Sans rejeter son apport, Pierre Buser montre qu’il déborde largement ce qu’en a révélé la psychanalyse, freudienne ou jungienne. De nombreux aspects de la perception et de la mémoire, le vécu psychique des comas et des syncopes, la création scientifique, l’intentionnalité, l’empathie : nombreux sont les mécanismes psychologiques qui sont inconscients. Au point qu’on peut se demander s’il n’est pas le régime normal de notre activité psychique. Et si, à son tour, la conscience n’en était qu’une infime partie ?Pierre Buser est professeur émérite à l’université Pierre et Marie Curie. Il est membre de l’Académie des sciences. Il est notamment l’auteur de Cerveau de soi, cerveau de l’autre.
Embodiment, Ego-Space, and Action
The majority of research on human perception and action examines sensors and effectors in relative isolation. What is less often considered in these research domains is that humans interact with a perceived world in which they themselves are part of the perceptual representation, as are the positions and actions (potential or ongoing) of other acti
The Roots of Cognitive Neuroscience
The Roots of Cognitive Neuroscience examines the way brain damage can impair our cognitive and emotional systems. In chapters that range from examining memory and language to emotions and creativity, this book demonstrates that behavioral neurology and neuropsychology are just as relevant today as these research strategies were 150 years ago.
Human Motor Control
Human Motor Control is a elementary introduction to the field of motor control, stressing psychological, physiological, and computational approaches. Human Motor Control cuts across all disciplines which are defined with respect to movement: physical education, dance, physical therapy, robotics, and so on. The book is organized around major activity areas. - A comprehensive presentation of the major problems and topics in human motor control - Incorporates applications of work that lie outside traditional sports or physical education teaching
Presynaptic Inhibition and Neural Control
This is a timely review of the mechanisms underlying the presynaptic control of synaptic transmission and the role they play in sensory and motor behavior. Early chapters offer a detailed account of the anatomy, biophysics, and physiology of synaptic transmission at the peripheral and central synapses, focusing on the presynaptic control of transmitter release. Later chapters explore the organization of neural pathways leading to the presynaptic inhibition of transmitter release in segmental reflex pathways. A final section provides examples of the operation of presynaptic control mechanisms during specific sensory and motor functions in mammals, including humans. Integrating synaptic transmission and CNS functions at the systems level, this volume will be of particular interest to researchers studying both areas.

Adaptive Motion of Animals and Machines
• Motivation It is our dream to understand the principles of animals’ remarkable ability for adaptive motion and to transfer such abilities to a robot. Up to now, mechanisms for generation and control of stereotyped motions and adaptive motions in well-known simple environments have been formulated to some extentandsuccessfullyappliedtorobots.However,principlesofadaptationto variousenvironmentshavenotyetbeenclari?ed,andautonomousadaptation remains unsolved as a seriously di?cult problem in robotics. Apparently, the ability of animals and robots to adapt in a real world cannot be explained or realized by one single function in a control system and mechanism. That is, adaptation in motion ...
