What does a swimming leech have to do with a running human? The evolution of the nervous system relates to a large extent to the evolution of locomotion. 'Neuronal Control of Locomotion: From Mollusc to Man' describes how the brains in very diverse and evolutionarily removed species control the animal's locomotion.
