“Um, really a book that makes the rounds from time to time is a book called The Spinal Engine by Serge Gracovetsky, and he really talks about the trunk as a driver of power, not just as a chassis of which the big engine moves, and that really is a nice conceptual way of simplifying movement!”
Discussed
“For example, the work of Gracovetsky on the spine in 'The Spinal Engine' illustrates how ancient movement patterns, perhaps stemming even from exoskeletons, persist within us.”
