Embryogeny and Phylogeny of the Human Posture 1: A New Glance at the Future of our Species, Volume 3

Embryogeny and Phylogeny of the Human Posture 1: A New Glance at the Future of our Species, Volume 3, 1 is a comprehensive biology reference published by Wiley - Blackwell. Description By Anne Dambricourt Malasse The future of the human posture is in the spotlight. The 200-year-old locomotion paradigm can no longer resist the advancement of knowledge, yet 2,500 years of thinking on the place of verticalized human anatomy and its reflexive consciousness in the natural history of life and the Earth, is more relevant than ever.This book retraces these reflections from pre-Socratic philosophers, focusing on the link between verticality and the most complex and consciously reflexive nervous system on the top rung of the ladder of living beings.
