To repair the injured, malformed or degenerating human central nervous system, we have to understand the functioning of the healthy human CNS on cellular and integrative levels to learn what changed in the neural networks. Since there is some similarity between development and repair, also the development of the human CNS has to be studied. Especially the strategy of movement-based learning of the CNS to eliminate occurring errors during development is of interest because it can also be used during repair. In this book, movement patters which have the highest rate of re-learning movement are analyzed as well as higher mental functions. The therapy using these efficient movement-based learning movements is called Coordination Dynamics Therapy (CDT). (Imprint: Nova Biomedical )
