CRC Press Neural Plasticity in Adult Somatic Sensory-Motor Systems

Neural Plasticity in Adult Somatic Sensory-Motor Systems offers a comprehensive look at the dynamic processes within somatic sensory-motor cortical circuits. This scientific text provides an up-to-date description of how sensory pathways to the cortex change due to experience, learning, or damage to the nervous system. By focusing on cortical changes linked to shifts in movement and behavior, this book serves as a vital resource for understanding how the brain adapts. It explores the potential for direct brain-based interventions designed to improve the quality of life for individuals living with sensory-motor disabilities. This work is an essential addition for professionals in physiotherapy and allied health fields looking to understand the mechanics of neural adaptation and recovery.
