Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paperback. Neuromuscular fatigue is a phenomenon of great importance in everyday life as well as being of theoretical and clinical significance. Eleven years ago there was a seminal symposium on muscle fatigue held in London. The published proceedings (Ciba Foundation Symposium 82 - Human muscle fatigue: physiological mechanisms, Pitman, London, 1981) served as an important 'state-of-the-art' reference. In the intervening period there have been many developments with respect to our understanding of fatigue of the motor output, including processes located in the skeletal muscle fibres themselves as well as problems related to various aspects of (moto) neural muscle control. However, there are still uncertainties and important questions which remain unanswered. It was felt that the time was ripe to attempt a renewed synthesis by bringing together international experts from a range of complementary research areas. In this way it was hoped that attention co
