Book IX discusses the arm from a variety of perspectives. Arm musculature and innervation is detailed, demonstrating the arm's relation to the head, neck, and trunk. Also discussed is the movement of the head, shoulders, and trunk during childbirth, as well as early development of the hand's reflexes and movements. Direct application to teachers/students of the Alexander Technique is presented in Cole’s relation of nerve root levels to movement and in Carrington and Macdonald's “hands on the back of a chair.”
