This is the first book to offer a comprehensive overview of
higher-order motor disorders. It introduces new concepts emerging
from basic neurosciences and shows how they have impacted on the
field of cognitive motor control and led to new vistas for the
understanding of Higher-order Motor Disorders far beyond the
traditional field of topological diagnosis. It describes in detail
a wide range of clinical disorders including those of bimanual
co-ordination, apraxia and sensorimotor transformation deficits,
motor neglect, anarchic hand syndrome, imitation and utilisation
behaviours, action motivational and action monitoring disorders, as
well as new approaches to motor cortex plasticity and
reorganisation and rehalibitation of complex movement problems. The
book reviews the topic, starting with a description of the
neuroanatomical, neurobiological and cognitive basis of normal
motor behaviours, before moving on to cover the clinical features
of the disordered states. The final chapters cover the issues of
plastcity and recovery, pharmacological treatments and
rehabilitation.
This volume will stimulate research and foster new insights into
cognitive and motivational motor disorders. With expert
contributions from the major international centres in Europe and
the Americas his book gives a truly new framework for a complex and
confusing field.
