The Intelligent Movement Machine - An Ethological Perspective on the Primate Motor System - Bok av Michael (Department of Psychology Graziano - Inbund

The Intelligent Movement Machine - An Ethological Perspective on the Primate Motor System - Bok av Michael (Department of Psychology Graziano - Inbund

In The Intelligent Movement Machine: An Ethological Perspective on the Primate Motor System, Michael Graziano offers a fundamentally new theory of motor cortex organization: the rendering of the movement repertoire onto the cortex.
