Description détaillée : The Grasping Hand

The hand is a unique instrument that executes the commands of the brain and expresses the nuances of the mind.

The Grasping Hand: Structural and Functional Anatomy of the Hand & Upper Extremity by Amit Gupta and Makoto Tamai is a contemporary exploration of the ancient Hindu concept of the Karma Indriyas, the action medium through which the body performs tasks.

The state-of-the-art book details the functions of the hand to receive, gather, collect, and hold and the complicit role the upper extremity plays in enabling these actions. The anatomical structures intrinsic to these functions are detailed through illuminating cadaveric dissections and succinct text.
