Human Motor Development
A Lifespan Approach
«
Human Motor Development: A Lifespan Approach takes an applied approach to examining fundamental movement skill acquisition leading up to childhood and provides relatable examples on how all domains of human development impact further development and/or inhibit development of movement skills across the lifespan. The textbook provides a foundation of understanding that can be utilized by undergraduate students pursuing professions in physical therapy, occupational, physical education, applied behaviour analysis, etc.

Human Motor Development: A Lifespan Approach explores motor development as it relates to the other domains of human development – and it is the only book to do that! It is key to understanding how humans learn how to move in the context of their general development, and the importance of movement across the lifespan.
