This book dealing with stance and motion was planned in June 1986
at a meeting held in Moscow and Leningrad between a group of Soviet
and French scientists interested in motor control. This meeting
took place in the framework of an exchange program between the USSR
Academy of Seiences and the French Centre National de la Recherche
Scientifique. It was very successful event and was greatly
appreciated by all those who attended it. Several participants put
forward the proposal that the possibility of publishing a book was
worth exploring. What were the reasons for publishing a book on
stance and motion ? The interest aroused in the participants by
each others contributions was not a sufficiently decisive argument.
It was feit, however, that a large proportion of the orginal
material presented at the meeting, especially in the field of
posture and locomotion but also on other aspects covered by the
book could be presented in a summarized form which should appeal to
a larger audience because the facts and hypotheses they contained
especially those from the Soviet participants, were not very
familiar among international circles, and that many scientists
would appreciate having a single volume containing a survey ofthe
current state of research in this field. This was also the opinion
of Plenum Press, who agreed to publish the book. Each participant
at the meeting submitted a paper which was examined by two referees
before being accepted.
