AB Tremor  is  an  approximately  rhythmic,  roughly  sinusoidal  involuntary  movement.  Despite  more  than  a  century  of  clinical  and  laboratory  investigations,  no  tremor  is  understood  completely.  Common  and  uncommon  forms  of  tremor  are  reviewed  in  this  chapter,  and  two  basic  questions  are  addressed  for  each  form:  what  is  the  source  of  oscillation  and  why  does  the  oscillation  occur.
