Bernstein's Construction of Movements The Original Text and Commentaries

Bernstein's Construction of Movements The Original Text and Commentaries

Nikolai Aleksandrovich Bernstein was one of the great neuroscientists of the twentieth century and highly respected by Western scientists even though most have never read his most important book entitled On the Construction of Movements. Bernstein's Construction of Movements: The Original Text and Commentaries is the first English translation. It supplements the translated text with a series of commentaries by scientists who knew Bernstein personally as well as leaders in related fields including physics motor control and biomechanics. While written in 1947 Bernstein’s book is anything but obsolete making this English translation and accompanying commentaries an invaluable text. The translated original text presents in detail Bernstein’s views on the evolutionary history of biological movement and his multi-level hierarchical scheme of the construction of movements in higher animals including humans. The following commentaries address Bernstein’s personality the history of the book and current views on different aspects of neuroscience covered in Bernstein’s text. Ultimately they present a book within the book to showcase how Bernstein’s heritage has developed over the past years. This classic available for the first time to an English-speaking audience will prove beneficial to students instructors and experts of neuroscience physics neurophysiology motor control motor rehabilitation biomechanics dynamical systems and related fields. | Bernstein's Construction of Movements The Original Text and Commentaries
