Current State of Postural Research - Moving Beyond the Balance Platform
The concept of posture control has morphed over the past century from a reflex, hierarchically controlled, innate behavior to a complex and adaptable motor act highly influenced by cognitive processes as well as confidence and attentiveness of the performer. In addition, multisensory control of posture has been recognized as a process of fusion and integration rather than summation and inhibition. Advances in computational modeling and imaging have revealed that higher cortical centers are involved in production of what were previously believed to be stereotypical, triggered reactions. Emerging evidence now supports the idea that postural behaviors are regulated by distributed control in the neuraxis and shaped by dynamic interactions of sensorimotor processes in a task- and context-dependent manner.
The Interprofessional Health Care Team: Leadership and Development
The Interprofessional Health Care Team: Leadership and Development, Third Edition is designed to help future health professionals realize their capacity for leadership and develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes that are requisite to becoming a positive agent of change and growth in themselves and others and the organizations within which they work. It describes possibilities and options, theories, exercises, rich references, and stimulating questions that will inspire both novices and experts to think differently about their roles and styles as leaders or members of a team. The authors provide many tools to empower readers and facilitate the fostering of productive teamwork. It is an inspiring book with easily operational principles. It is written for many audiences and to achieve many goals all centered on best practices to attain quality care, particularly during this time of reinventing and transforming health care.
The Interprofessional Health Care Team
This new, Second Edition of The Interprofessional Health Care Team: Leadership and Development provides the much-needed knowledge base for developing a relational leadership style that promotes interdisciplinarity, interprofessionalism, and productive teamwork. It describes possibilities and options, theories, exercises, rich references, and stimulating questions that will inspire both novices and experts to think differently about their roles and styles as leaders or members of a team.
Advanced Technologies in Rehabilitation
Intends to examine the focus and aims that drive rehabilitation intervention and technology development. This book addresses the questions of what research is taking place to develop rehabilitation, applied technology and how we have been able to modify and measure responses in both healthy and clinical populations using these technologies.
Advances in Visual Computing
It is with great pleasure that we present the proceedings of the 6th Inter- tional, Symposium on Visual Computing (ISVC 2010), which was held in Las Vegas, Nevada. ISVC provides a common umbrella for the four main areas of visual computing including vision, graphics, visualization, and virtual reality. The goal is to provide a forum for researchers, scientists, engineers, and pr- titioners throughout the world to present their latest research ?ndings, ideas, developments, and applications in the broader area of visual computing. This year, the program consisted of 14 oral sessions, one poster session, 7 special tracks, and 6 keynote presentations. The response to the call for papers was very good; we received over 300 submissions for the main symposium from which we accepted 93 papers for oral presentation and 73 papers for poster p- sentation. Special track papers were solicited separately through the Organizing and Program Committees of each track. A total of 44 papers were accepted for oral presentation and 6 papers for poster presentation in the special tracks.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Recognized as two of the world's leading authorities on the subject, Susan Herdman and Richard Clendaniel, joined by a team of expert contributors, deliver the 4th Edition of the field's definitive text on the management of vestibular diseases and disorders. From assessment through therapy, they present the scientific and clinical knowledge you need to distinguish between vestibular and non-vestibular dizziness and to plan and implement the appropriate treatments.
ICTs for Improving Patients Rehabilitation Research Techniques
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the second International Workshop on ICTs for Improving Patients Rehabilitation Research Techniques, REHAB 2014, held in Oldenburg, Germany, in May 2014. The 26 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 69 submissions. The papers focus on virtual and enhanced environments, covering topics such as motor rehabilitation; neuroimaging in rehabilitation; virtual rehabilitation; clinical assessment; cognitive rehabilitation; communication and language; ambisonics and audio environments; haptic devices; sensory impairment; medical systems; input devices; sensors and actuators; multi-user systems for user interaction; computer access; virtual humans; balance, posture and mobility; communications aids; tools for architectural/CAD design; product design, testing and prototyping; training tools for rehabilitation; augmented reality applications; human factors; rehabilitation robotics.

Multiple Muscle Systems
The picture on the front cover of this book depicts a young man pulling a fishnet, a task of practical relevance for many centuries. It is a complex task, involving load transmission throughout the body, intricate balance, and eye head-hand coordination. The quest toward understanding how we perform such tasks with skill and grace, often in the presence of unpredictable pertur bations, has a long history. However, despite a history of magnificent sculptures and drawings of the human body which vividly depict muscle ac tivity and interaction, until more recent times our state of knowledge of human movement was rather primitive. During the past century this has changed; we now have developed a...
