Motor Control and Learning

Motor Control and Learning edited by Markus Latash, Francis Lestienne.

Motor Control and Learning focuses on the effects of development, aging, and practice on the control of human voluntary movement. These issues have been at the center of attention of the motor control community, but no book until now has addressed all of these issues under one cover in the context o...
