Inhalt:
This book discusses gait, the control of gait and how different pathological conditions may affect gait, with a unique application of a gait study reviewed at the end. We first discuss methodology issues related to gait quantification and interpretations of different gait-related measures and their theoretical relevancy and clinical applications. The effects of different pathological conditions on gait were then discussed, using diabetic peripheral neuropathy, Parkinson's disease, concussions and lower back pain as examples. A current understanding of how anatomical alternation, central nervou
