Sensors: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications (Springer Optimization and Its Applications)
Sensors: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications (Springer Optimization and Its Applications)
In recent years, technological advances have resulted in the rapid development of a new exciting research direction – the interdisciplinary use of sensors for data collection, systems analysis, and monitoring. Application areas include military surveillance, environmental screening, computational neuroscience,...
Me (The Art of Living)
Me (The Art of Living)

'Who am I?' In a world where randomness and chance make life transient and unpredictable, religion, psychology and philosophy have all tried, in their different ways, to answer this question and to give meaning and coherence to the human person. How we should construct a meaningful 'me' - and to make sense of one's life -...

Side Bias: A Neuropsychological Perspective
Side Bias: A Neuropsychological Perspective

`Rather than being an esoteric aspect of brain function, lateralization is a fundamental characteristic of the vertebrate brain essential to a broad range of neural and behavioral processes.' Professor Lesley J. Rogers, Chapter 1 of Side Bias: A Neuropsychological Perspective. This volume contains 14 chapters from a...

Brains, Machines, and Mathematics
Brains, Machines, and Mathematics

This is a book whose time has come-again. The first edition (published by McGraw-Hill in 1964) was written in 1962, and it celebrated a number of approaches to developing an automata theory that could provide insights into the processing of information in brainlike machines, making it accessible to readers with no more than a college...

Neurological Disorders in Famous Artists (Frontiers of Neurology and Neuroscience, Vol. 19)
Neurological Disorders in Famous Artists (Frontiers of Neurology and Neuroscience, Vol. 19)

A Karger 'Publishing Highlights 1890–2015' title

The study of how a neurological disorder can change the artistic activity and behavior of creative people is a largely unexplored field. This publication looks closer at famous painters, writers, composers and philosophers of the 18th to the 20th centuries who...

Action to Language via the Mirror Neuron System
Action to Language via the Mirror Neuron System

Mirror neurons may hold the brain's key to social interaction - each coding not only a particular action or emotion but also the recognition of that action or emotion in others. The Mirror System Hypothesis adds an evolutionary arrow to the story - from the mirror system for hand actions, shared with monkeys and chimpanzees, to the...

Clusterin in Normal Brain Functions and During Neurodegeneration (Neuroscience Intelligence Unit)
Clusterin in Normal Brain Functions and During Neurodegeneration (Neuroscience Intelligence Unit)

Clusterin is a multifunctional protein which was independently discovered by more than ten different research groups in the 1980s. New roles of clusterin in brain functions have come to llight which are summarized here by the researchers involved. Recent discoveries include a unique lipoprotein particle containing clusterin and apoE secreted...

Intervening in the Brain: Changing Psyche and Society (Ethics of Science and Technology Assessment)
Intervening in the Brain: Changing Psyche and Society (Ethics of Science and Technology Assessment)

The wealth of insights into the brain’s functioning gained by neuroscience in recent years led to the development of new possibilities for intervening in the brain such as neurotransplantation, neural prostheses and brain stimulation techniques. Moreover, new and safer classes of psychopharmaceutical drugs lend themselves to...

Why We Make Mistakes: How We Look Without Seeing, Forget Things in Seconds, and Are All Pretty Sure We Are Way Above Average
Why We Make Mistakes: How We Look Without Seeing, Forget Things in Seconds, and Are All Pretty Sure We Are Way Above Average

We forget our passwords. We pay too much to go to the gym. We think we’d be happier if we lived in California (we wouldn’t), and we think we should stick with our first answer on tests (we shouldn’t). Why do we make mistakes? And could we do a little better?

We human beings have design flaws.

Methods in Neuroethological Research
Methods in Neuroethological Research

The rapid progress of neuroscience in the last decade can be largely attributed to significant advances in neuroethology, a branch of science that seeks to understand the neural basis of natural animal behavior. Novel approaches including molecular biological techniques, optical recording methods, functional anatomy, and informatics have...

Near-Death Experiences: Heavenly Insight or Human Illusion?
Near-Death Experiences: Heavenly Insight or Human Illusion?

The expression "Near-Death Experience" is associated in the popular understanding with access to knowledge about our transition between the states of life and death. But how should such experiences be interpreted? Are they verifiable with scientific methods? If so, how can they be explained? Attempting to relate matters of...
