Book synopsis

The motivation behind this volume is to provide the reader with some coherence in the widely scattered literature on motor impairments in the elderly. The volume appraises the main theoretical ideas which currently characterize sensorimotor research on the older adult. The book is organized around five topic themes: sensorimotor integration, age changes in muscle, posture and locomotion, neurological diseases, and effects of retraining. The chapters in each of the theme topics discuss many of the currently debated questions on the sensorimotor mechanisms, and how they are altered by aging processes. Many disciplines have interest in how such mechanisms change with age - kinesiologists, physiologists, psychologists, physical therapists and clinicians, be they working in academe, physical medicine, or rehabilitation. All should find the proceedings from this ARW valuable.
