Coles Biotensegrity: The Structural Basis Of Life at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The concept of tensegrity as a structural design principle has been around since the middle of the twentieth century and is currently seeing a huge increase in interest. From early forays into a new form of sculpture it is now incorporated into architecture and the engineering of deployable structures in space, and is also attracting the attention of biologists, clinicians and others interested in functional anatomy and movement. This book is a response to the frequently asked question, "what is (bio)tensegrity", and will inspire the reader to take a deeper look at biological structure and find their own ways of applying it. It presents a detailed and overall picture of tensegrity/biotensegrity and brings everything together for the first time, from its discovery and basic geometry to its significance to functional anatomy and biomechanical theory. A much needed reference on part of the basic science that underpins clinical reasoning.
