Abstract:

This up-to-date handbook focuses on the study of action, or"motor control, "which examines movement and skill and the internal processes that lead to them. As action is interrelated with cognition, this is a vigorous field of investigation. Written by international experts, Motor Skills provides current reviews on general processes important to motor control--learning, coordination, timing, planning, and control--and on the individual skills of throwing, catching, reaching, and typing. The text describes important conceptual and methodological advances regarding control theory and timing, and is divided into two sections which analyze skill from the perspectives of general processes and individual skills.
