Visual Perception and Action in Sport (Paperback, 2)

In the past few decades there has been increasing recognition of the role of perception in successful sport performance. Athletes are dependent on a constant supply of accurate and reliable information from the environment while performing complex movements. Visual Perception and Action in Sport examines the information which is perceived by the human visual system and the way it is utilised to support actions in sport.
A key theme to emerge from each of the chapters of this book is the integration of theoretical knowledge and practical expertise. All three authors have expertise in the teaching and researching of motor learning and control in sport. They are currently undertaking projects in collaboration with universities and research centres around the world.
