Abstract

Most of the exercises described in this chapter were developed by Klein-Vogelbach (1990a) on the basis of her functional kinetics concept (Klein-Vögelbach 1990b). Klein-Vogelbach has presented a thorough analysis and a detailed description of each of the exercises (1990b) as well as a video tape of them, which is available in the United States (Klein-Vogelbach 1990c).
