- catalog abstract "For use either as a reference or as a text for graduate students, presents an approach to motor control studies based upon control of the equilibrium states on the neuromotor system an approach that originates from the classic works by Nicholai Bernstein and intensively developed during the last three decades. A strong back ground in physiology, physics, mathematics, and control theory is desirable.".
