Brunnstrom’s Clinical Kinesiology Sixth Edition Copyright © 2012 F.A. Davis Company Introduction  Chapter provides a kinesiological assessment of several upper extremity activities of daily living (ADLs).  Substantial variability exists in human movement.  Understanding normal movement with common ADLs will be helpful with treating patients with impairments.
