Whenever you get dressed, carry objects, write, draw, or gesture,
you express knowledge about how to get things done with your hands.
Ironically, that knowledge is often difficult to express. Typically
you can't say what you know. Still, it would be enormously useful
to identify the knowledge underlying manual control. The design of
equipment and transportation systems might better anticipate the
abilities and limitations of users, and methods of teaching and
rehabilitating skills might improve. This book, the first on the
cognitive psychology of manual control, uncovers the hidden
knowledge that hands express. Organized around key topics in this
emerging area, including the role of the will in manual control,
illusions concerning hand position sense, and the coordination of
manual actions with others, Knowing Hands explains the planning and
control of manual actions in everyday life.
