Description
The ability to walk upright on two legs is one of the main traits that distinguishes us as humans, yet the reasons for its development remain a mystery among scientists. Moreover, walking has a fundamental impact on our health. In the book Born to Walk, author James Earls explores the mystery of the evolution of walking by describing the complex mechanisms that allow us to walk efficiently on two legs. He views the entire body as an interconnected unit and explains how we can regain fluidity in this complex and intricate type of movement. This essential publication on mechanics offers physiotherapists, teachers, and anyone else interested in understanding the complex process of human walking new research in the areas of assessment, diagnosis, and therapeutic approaches. Earls presents a suitable model for understanding the complexity of movement while gaining deeper insights into the physiology and mechanics of the walking process. This book is intended for practitioners of movement therapy, physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, massage therapists, trainers, and others who study movement and its mechanics.
