Molecular Basis of Memory, Volume 122 (Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science)

This special volume of Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science provides a current overview of how memory is processed in the brain. A broad range of topics are presented by leaders in the field, ranging from brain circuitry to synaptic plasticity to the molecular machinery that contributes to the brain's...

Primate Neuroethology
Primate Neuroethology

Why do people find monkeys and apes so compelling to watch? One clear answer is that they seem so similar to us-a window into our own minds and how we have evolved over millennia. As Charles Darwin wrote in his Notebook M, "He who understands baboon would do more toward metaphysics than Locke." Darwin recognized that behavior and...

Who Needs Emotions?: The Brain Meets the Robot (Series in Affective Science)
Who Needs Emotions?: The Brain Meets the Robot (Series in Affective Science)

The idea that some day robots may have emotions has captured the imagination of many and has been dramatized by robots and androids in such famous movies as 2001 Space Odyssey's HAL or Star Trek's Data. By contrast, the editors of this book have assembled a panel of experts in neuroscience and artificial intelligence who have dared to...

Brain-Mind Machinery: Brain-inspired Computing and Mind Opening
Brain-Mind Machinery: Brain-inspired Computing and Mind Opening

Brain and mind continue to be a topic of enormous scientific interest. With the recent advances in measuring instruments such as two-photon laser scanning microscopy and fMRI, the neuronal connectivity and circuitry of how the brain's various regions are hierarchically interconnected and organized are better understood now than ever...

High-Level Vision: Object Recognition and Visual Cognition
High-Level Vision: Object Recognition and Visual Cognition

In this book, Shimon Ullman focuses on the processes of high-level vision that deal with the interpretation and use of what is seen in the image. In particular, he examines two major problems. The first, object recognition and classification, involves recognizing objects despite large variations in appearance caused by changes in viewing...

Computer Organization and Design, Fifth Edition: The Hardware/Software Interface
Computer Organization and Design, Fifth Edition: The Hardware/Software Interface

The fifth edition of Computer Organization and Design-winner of a 2014 Textbook Excellence Award (Texty) from The Text and Academic Authors Association-moves forward into the post-PC era with new examples, exercises, and material highlighting the emergence of mobile computing and the cloud. This generational change is emphasized and...

Pitch: Neural Coding and Perception (Springer Handbook of Auditory Research)
Pitch: Neural Coding and Perception (Springer Handbook of Auditory Research)

Although pitch has been considered an important area of auditory research since the birth of modern acoustics in the 19th century, some of the most significant developments in our understanding of this phenomenon have occurred comparatively recently. In auditory physiology, researchers are now identifying cells in the brainstem and cortex...

Getting Started with the Photon: Making Things with the Affordable, Compact, Hackable WiFi Module
Getting Started with the Photon: Making Things with the Affordable, Compact, Hackable WiFi Module

The Photon is an open source, inexpensive, programmable, WiFi-enabled module for building connected projects and prototypes. Powered by an ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller and a Broadcom WiFi chip, the Photon is just as happy plugged into a hobbyist's breadboard as it is into a product rolling off of an assembly line.

Pediatric Endocrinology: Growth, Adrenal, Sexual, Thyroid, Calcium, and Fluid Balance Disorders (CLINICAL PEDIATRICS) (Volume 2)

Celebrating more than twenty years as the single best source in the field, this Fifth Edition has now expanded into two cornerstone volumes with 53 fully inclusive chapters and 73 renowned contributors that comprehensively address every topic and trend relevant to the identification, diagnosis, and management of endocrine and...

The Human Brain During the Second Trimester (Atlas of Human Central Nervous System Development)
The Human Brain During the Second Trimester (Atlas of Human Central Nervous System Development)

The brain in the second trimester, the subject of Volume
3, is nearing anatomical maturity throughout the brainstem. In contrast, the neurogenesis and neuronal migration are still in progress in the cerebral cortex and cerebellum. Consequently, the authors chose to focus on the migration, sojourning, and settling of the neuronal
...

Field of Vision: A Manual and Atlas of Perimetry (Current Clinical Neurology)
Field of Vision: A Manual and Atlas of Perimetry (Current Clinical Neurology)

A comprehensive survey on the use of bedside skills and perimetric devices to the test visual fields, and how to interpret the results. To develop the clinician's interpretative skills, the authors include a chapter on visual anatomy and an atlas of 100 real-life cases arranged in anatomic order from retina to striate cortex. By placing a...

Localizing the Moral Sense: Neuroscience and the Search for the Cerebral Seat of Morality, 1800-1930
Localizing the Moral Sense: Neuroscience and the Search for the Cerebral Seat of Morality, 1800-1930

Due to the current revolution in brain research the search for the “moral brain” became a serious endeavour. Nowadays, neural circuits that are indispensable for moral and social behaviour are discovered and the brains of psychopaths and criminals - the classical anti-heroes of morality - are scanned with curiosity, even...
