Rehabilitation Robotics gives an introduction and overview of all areas of rehabilitation robotics, perfect for anyone new to the field. It also summarizes available robot technologies and their application to different pathologies for skilled researchers and clinicians. The editors have been involved in the development and application of robotic devices for neurorehabilitation for more than 15 years. This experience using several commercial devices for robotic rehabilitation has enabled them to develop the know-how and expertise necessary to guide those seeking comprehensive understanding of this topic.

Each chapter is written by an expert in the respective field, pulling in perspectives from both engineers and clinicians to present a multi-disciplinary view. The book targets the implementation of efficient robot strategies to facilitate the re-acquisition of motor skills. This technology incorporates the outcomes of behavioral studies on motor learning and its neural correlates into the design, implementation and validation of robot agents that behave as 'optimal' trainers, efficiently exploiting the structure and plasticity of the human sensorimotor systems. In this context, human-robot interaction plays a paramount role, at both the physical and cognitive level, toward achieving a symbiotic interaction where the human body and the robot can benefit from each other's dynamics.
  • Provides a comprehensive review of recent developments in the area of rehabilitation robotics
  • Includes information on both therapeutic and assistive robots
  • Focuses on the state-of-the-art and representative advancements in the design, control, analysis, implementation and validation of rehabilitation robotic systems

  • Counterinsurgency Warfare and Brutalisation

    Roberto Colombo, Emil Aslan Souleimanov, Roberto Colombo

    This book offers the first analysis of the brutalisation paradigm in counter-insurgency warfare. Minimising the use of force and winning over the population's opinion is said to be the cornerstone of success in modern counterinsurgency (COIN). Yet...

  • Blood Revenge in Irregular Warfare

    Roberto Colombo, Emil Souleimanov

    This book offers an original assessment of the ways in which the sociocultural code of blood revenge and its modern remnants shape irregular warfare. Despite being a common driver of communal violence, blood revenge has received little attention f...

Vittorio Sanguineti, PhD, is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Genoa. He received a Master's degree in Electronic Engineering (1989) and a PhD in Robotics (1994), both at the University of Genoa. He Has Been working as a post-doctoral fellow at Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble, France (1995-1996), at McGill University, Montreal, Canada (1996), and at Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, USA (1997-1998 and 2000 ). His main areas of interest are the neural control of movement (upper limb, orofacial and postural control), motor learning and the applications of robotics to neuromotor rehabilitation.
