Focusing on anatomical, neural and physiological as well as psychological, social and clinical aspects, the scope of this book ranges from the fetus in the womb to the older adult in need of care. The chapters can be read individually or consecutively, and cross-chapter content is indicated by chapter references. Key learning points are highlighted at the end of each section, and figures, illustrations, and references facilitate the learning process. The quality of the presented study results has been critically analyzed and only randomized controlled studies are reported, which gives the reader a critical representation of the current state of knowledge. The textbook also provides valuable suggestions for future research by noting blind spots in existing research, and by pointing to methodological challenges in the implementation of high quality studies. Hence, this textbook is not only a representation of current knowledge, but also an epistemological analysis of the research process. There has been a surge of research about the sense of touch in the past ten years, which is incorporated in this book. This textbook will be an invaluable tool for physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses and other health professionals in everyday professional life. 001482778 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 30, 2023). 001482778 650_0 $$aTouch. 001482778 650_0 $$aTouch$$xTherapeutic use. 001482778 650_6 $$aToucher. 001482778 650_6 $$aToucher$$xEmploi en thérapeutique. 001482778 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001482778 7001_ $$aWinkelmann, Claudia,$$eauthor. 001482778 7001_ $$aGrunwald, Martin,$$eauthor. 001482778 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3662678594$$z9783662678596$$w(OCoLC)1390187974 001482778 852__ $$bebk 001482778 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-662-67860-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001482778 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1482778$$pGLOBAL_SET 001482778 980__ $$aBIB 001482778 980__ $$aEBOOK 001482778 982__ $$aEbook 001482778 983__ $$aOnline 001482778 994__ $$a92$$bISE
