Reflexes, Movement, Learning and Behaviour: Analyzing and unblocking neuro-motor immaturity | by Sally Goddard Blythe | Hawthorn Press
This book was not an ‘easy read’ for me. It contains a great deal of in-depth information. However, I would wholeheartedly agree with the idea expressed in the introduction, that ‘brain and body work together, not separately’.
There are seven chapters. Chapter One describes the primitive reflexes in great detail. Chapter Two outlines the gradual process from primitive reflexes to postural control.
In Chapter Three, the focus is on brain development. There are helpful lists and diagrams differentiating between left and right brain abilities and development during the first two years of life.
