The evolution of the Bobath concept is brilliantly captured inthis volume. The recognition that the best inhibition may come fromengaging the patient in normal activities is an example of the wayone of the notions central to the original Bobath Concept hasdeveloped. In short, the Bobath Concept lies at the heart of anapproach to neurorehabilitation that is ready to take advantage ofthe rapidly advancing understanding, coming from neuroscience, ofbrain function in, in particular, of the effects of and responsesto damage, and the factors that may drive recovery. It is nocoincidence that neuroplasticity figures so prominently in thepages that follow.'

This book guides the reader through general principles to morespecific application of neurophysiological principles and movementre-education in the recovery of important areas, including movingbetween sitting and standing, locomotion and recovery of upper limbfunction.
Bobath Concept: Theory and Clinical Practice in NeurologicalRehabilitationwill be invaluable to undergraduate and qualifiedphysiotherapists /occupational therapists and all professionalsworking in neurological rehabilitation.
* Covers the theoretical underpinning of the Bobath Concept.
* Presents a holistic, 24-hour approach to functionalrecovery.
* Focuses on efficient movement and motor learning, to maximisefunction.
* Forges links between theory and clinical practice.
* Illustrated throughout.
