The emerging science of biotensegrity provides a fresh context for
rethinking our understanding of human movement, but its
complexities can be formidable. Biotensegrity: The Structural Basis
of Life, Second edition - now with full color illustrations
throughout - explores and explains the concept of biotensegrity and
provides an understanding and appreciation of anatomy and
physiology in the light of the latest research findings. The reader
learns that biotensegrity is an evolving science which gives
researchers, teachers, and practitioners across a wide range of
specialisms, including bodyworkers and movement teachers, a deeper
understanding of the structure and function of the human body. They
are then able to develop clinical practice and skills in light of
this understanding, leading to more effective therapeutic
approaches, with the aim of improved client outcomes. The second
edition provides expanded coverage of the developmental and
therapeutic aspects of biotensegrity. Coverage now includes: A more
thorough look at life's internal processes Closed kinematic chains
as the new biomechanics Embryological development as an
evolutionary process The human body as a constantly evolving system
based on a set of unchanging principles Emergence, heterarchies,
soft-matter and small-world networks A deeper look at what
constitutes the therapeutic process
