Neuware - Aimed at undergraduate and higher level courses in movement sciences, as well as specialists in motor behaviour and human movement. An in-depth, multidisciplinary analysis of literature for researchers in the human movement sciences and related fields. Addresses the nature and function of variability, as well as how an understanding of variability can enhance the practice of teachers, coaches, physiotherapists and health professionals. Many scientific disciplines are represented in the text including psychology, motor control and skill acquisition, perceptual-motor development, chaos and complexity, blomechanics, molecular biology, physiology, philosophy, the neurosciences and physical education. Examines a range of topics including the interaction of genetic and environmental training factors on performance in sport, the nature of specific adaptations, measurement protocols, and speed and accuracy in Olympic level athletes.

In the groundbreaking text, Movement System Variability, internationally known scientists synthesize the latest research in the study of variability in the human movement system and provide an in-depth, multi-disciplinary analysis for researchers in human movement sciences and related fields.
Movement System Variability's unique dynamic systems perspective in most chapters adds a new theoretical interpretation to the role of variability in movement behavior. A rich array of scientific disciplines is represented in the text to offer insights into the nature and role of variability observed at different levels of analysis.
Movement System Variability is organized into five parts:
-Behavioral Analysis of Variability in the Movement System
-Variability, Performance and Excellence
-Issues in Measurement
-Variability Across the Lifespan
-Variability Within Subsystems
This essential reference book provides fresh insights into the nature and function of variability. Just as important, it demonstrates how an understanding of variability can enhance the practice of educators, teachers, coaches, physiotherapists, and developmental specialists. This book is an ideal reference for researchers or students interested in the human movement sciences.
