Hand and Brain is a comprehensive overview of the hand's sensorimotor control. It discusses mediating variables in perception and comprehension, the coordination of muscles with the central nervous system, the nature of movement control and hand positioning, hand-arm coordination in reaching and grasping, and the sensory function of the hand. This book takes a broad interdisciplinary perspective on the control of hand movements that includes neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, psychology and neuropsychology, and biomechanics. The authors, who have all made significant scientific contributions in their own right, have sought to introduce their chosen topics in a manner that the reader is able to follow without sacrificing detailed and up-to-date coverage of the major developments. ...

Multi-authored textbook developed by an ad hoc committee of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand. Provides access to basic information about the diagnosis and initial treatment of hand surgery problems. Includes halftone illustrations.

Classic Hand Tools reveals the rich variety and history of hand tools through engaging prose and vivid color photographs. Before the machine age, all woodworking and carpentry was done with hand tools, and an amazing variety of tools evolved for a wide range of tasks. Even today, with machinery available for many woodworking operations, some tasks are more easily and efficiently accomplished with hand tools.

This book is about the sensorimotor control of the hand. It is concerned both with movements of the hand produced by the arm and with the shaping and manipulative abilities of the hand produced by movements of individual fingers. A major theme is the nature of coordination of the hand and of the arm both at the level of movements and in terms of muscle contributions. Hand function depends crucially on sensory factors. Indeed, the hand's role is often primarily sensory and hand movements enable active exploration which greatly increases the potential for extracting information from objects in the environment. This book therefore covers sensory as well as motor aspects of hand function, with contributions from a wide range of professionals in psychology, neurophysiology, engineering, and biomechanics, as well as the medical specialities of hand surgery and neurology.
