This book comprises a series of lectures given by celebrated Soviet
neurophysiologist Nikolai Alexandrovich Bernstein in Moscow in 1925
and first published in Russian in 1926. Bernstein's groundbreaking
work, which has had a significant influence on the development of
neuroscience, movement studies, and other fields of study in
Russia, Eastern Europe, and the West, was suppressed during
Stalin's regime. At the time of its publication, Biomechanics for
Instructors was a significant resource for teachers, with its
descriptions of the movement of joints and degrees of freedom,
illustrations of how to calculate the work capacity of muscles with
bones acting as levers, the role of the central nervous system in
movement, and more. Though the terminologies and methods have
changed and been updated as research and technologies have
progressed, the book remains a valuable introduction for those
interested in Bernstein's work more generally, and to those
involved in the study of biomechanics. This book is also of
interest to historians and philosophers of neuroscience, as well as
those involved in movement studies in both the scientific and
artistic domains, and to physiotherapists and those involved in
sports research and practice.
