Synopsis

This book is a collection of papers given by invited speakers at a Symposium on 'Feedback and Motor Control', held at the University of Glasgow from July 10th to 13th 1984, which was attended by over 200 scientists from 20 countries. The Symposium was the Fourth International Symposium organised by the Scottish Electrophysiological Society (SES), and on this occasion the SES joined forces with the Society for Experimental Biology (SEB), so that the Symposium was held dur ing the annual Summer Meeting of the SEB. A policy of the SES since its formation in 1970 has been to promote dialogue between scientists working on invertebrate and vertebrate nervous systems by hol

Synopsis

In the neurosciences many advances are currently being made in our understanding of both invertebrate and vertebrate (including human) nervous systems, but workers in one field do not always appreciate developments in the other. However, an increasing number of vertebrate physiologists are now coming to realize the importance of work carried out on invertebrate systems and the similarity of organization of, for example, the motor control systems of arthropods and vertebrates. This book brings together these two fields to review our current knowledge of the control of movement in the animal kingdom. This book should be of interest to reaserchers in the field of zoology, neurobiology and physiology.
