Description

Moshe Feldenkrais began developing, over fifty years ago, a movement-based learning process now known as the Feldenkrais Method. Body & Mature Behaviour is the groundbreaking work that lays the foundation for this renowned system of human development.

"Body & Mature Behaviour powerfully presents Moshe Feldenkrais's masterful genius in integrating body and mind, theory and practice, nature and culture, freedom and constraint. This classic of somatic thinking is as pertinent today as it was visionary at its original time of publication over half a century ago." -- Richard Shusterman, author of Performing Live

"When he published Body & Mature Behaviour in 1949, Moshe Feldenkrais was decades ahead of his time. He worked from a vision of the nervous system in which experience, both social and physical, could change the brain -- a theory of brain function which is only now beginning to be fully appreciated. Body & Mature Behaviour is a seminal work of creative thinking in which Feldenkrais articulates the philosophical underpinnings for the development of his extraordinary approach to human growth and learning, now known as the Feldenkrais Method." -- Jim Stephens PhD, PT, CFP
