    This book sheds new light on the dynamic structure of the body and in introducing tensegrity and biotensegrity, which is applying it to living organisms, it is an invitation to engage with the complex architectural matrix that sustains the natural bodily functions. The approach to this subject is playful, but it remains specific. It gives a deep insight into what biotensegrity is all about, and how it can inspire all those who work on and with the body as a living whole.This new understanding of the body¿s architecture is of special interest for dancers as it shifts the focus away from the bones as the continuous compressional support, and from the limited bone-muscle-tendon approach of the locomotor apparatus, towards a more organic and global vision of the moving body. (Liane Simmel, dancer)The biotensegrity concept has established the body comfort and the elasticity as a reference. (Michèle Tarento, otorhinolaryngologist and osteopath)The self-stress of a tensegral system is what immediately becomes obvious in his [the therapist¿s] hands. (Nadine Quéré, physiotherapist)[¿] thinking of functional architecture in terms of the biotensegrity concept proves to be helpful to the synthesis of interdisciplinary ideas, in both theory and practice. It provides a practical foundational model for conceiving a synthesis of the body and mind, which opens new avenues to be explored in the search for solutions to problems related to these interconnected ¿ interacting ¿ domains. (Bernard Payrau, cardiologist)[¿] the biotensegrity concept proves to be able to move body work significantly beyond back and shoulder pain management into fields of rehabilitation, addressing conditions which up until today are generally regarded as non-reversible. (Diane Drake Vincentz, trainer and eurythmist)The work of tensegrity in respect to the human body and anatomy has proven fruitful in so many ways that it seems one-sided to not answer to the claim it places on other aspects of human life. Given that the relation between language, body and mind is becoming more and more apparent, [...] a daring revision of language and grammar promises equally inspiring and wholesome results. (Marc Nürnberger, sinologist)

    In seinen Schriften griff Blechschmidt das Thema der menschlichen Embryologie unter dem Gesichtspunkt biodynamischer Stoffwechselfelder konsequent auf und beschrieb es. Seine Aufmerksamkeit gilt der Frage: Wie entsteht die menschliche Form?Blechschmidt schrieb und veröffentlichte ausschließlich in deutscher Sprache. Dies geschah größtenteils durch einen zweisprachigen deutsch-englischen Band, der von Karger ("Die Entwicklungsstufen des Menschen vor der Geburt", 1960) herausgegeben wurde, und durch eine außergewöhnliche Zusammenarbeit mit seinem Mitautor RF Gasser ("Biokinetik und Biodynamik der menschlichen Differenzierung", 1978) ), dass seine Arbeit teilweise einem international englischsprachigen Publikum zugänglich gemacht wurde. "Die Anfänge des menschlichen Lebens" (1977) wurde in erster Linie für die breite Öffentlichkeit geschrieben, ist aber nicht mehr gedruckt.Die Veröffentlichung von Brian Freemans Übersetzung von "Die Ontogenetische Basis der menschlichen Anatomie" (2004) trug zu einem wachsenden Interesse an Blechschmidts Ideen bei. Langsam begannen Osteopathen, Strukturintegratoren, Schädelpraktiker und andere Therapeuten, seine Arbeit zu schätzen.Die oben genannten Bücher bieten sowohl einen allgemeinen als auch einen umfassenden Zugang zum von Blechschmidt beschriebenen morphologischen Kosmos, sind aber derzeit leider nur teilweise verfügbar. Es gibt jedoch eine Reihe unbemerkter wissenschaftlicher Artikel, die bereits ins Englische übersetzt wurden und einen detaillierteren und tieferen, spezifischen Einblick in dieses durchdachte Universum von Form und Gestalt bieten. Das Buch, das Sie hier haben, ist eine Zusammenstellung einiger dieser einzelnen Artikel.

    This book has been written in three parts:The theoryThe energy-balancing lawsThe diseases: symptoms and treatmentThe theory deals with Yin and Yang and their clinical concepts, associations, imbalanced states, manifestations of these states and rules for balancing. Yin and Yang affect the five stages of our lives. The terms Blood, energy and body fluid are introduced, and the various climatic pathogenic factors that attack the body from the exterior are discussed, as well as how they can move towards the interior (explaining why we refer to certain illness states as damp or wind etc.). The theory of the Five Elements is the most important part of this book. All common imbalanced states are described with four pictures of imbalance - Blood, Yin, Yang and Qi.The energy-balancing laws explain the superficial and the deep energy circulation in the body. The meridian system is explained with its exterior and interior connection and uses, the Organ Clock and the relationship of the Five Elements. The eight extra meridians and their uses are also covered.Diagnosis and treatment: All diagnostic methods are explained. Needling and needle sensation, needling techniques and all the extraordinary therapies - moxibustion, cupping, plum-blossom-tapping, electrical stimulation of needles and bleeding - are also covered. Over 80 common diseases and symptoms are discussed and treatment is given for different causes of the same symptom. Every case history and treatment has been illustrated with the location of the points used, so that the reader does not have to look for these anywhere else.The idea for this book was that it would make a good bedside (patient's) book for the practice of acupuncture.

    In this book the author describes sequences of movements in sport, and illustrates how the muscles, which are united in concerted actions, combined with their connective tissue sheaths (fascia), work together in functional groups known as "muscle slings". This term has been introduced and widely applied in the theory and practice of sport and sports medicine.The author paints a vivid picture of the phases of the various movements in sport, and points out the muscles which are involved in muscle slings - just as if he were an enthusiastic reporter watching a game or an athletic performance.He describes in detail the muscle slings involved in the following sport disciplines (among others):throwing (javelin, medicine-ball, shot-putting)wrestling and boxinggymnastics (parallel bars, rings)rhythmic gymnasticsrowingballet dancingjumping (high, long, hurdling)running (sprinting, race-walking, short-distanceclimbingfootballThe text is superbly complemented by the unique three-part illustrations created in the 1950s by the Leipzig artist, Kurt Opitz. Their quality and accuracy have never been bettered - and probably never will be - because they are the result of an intensive cooperation over a lengthy period, between the artist and the anatomist.
