The Bodily Self, Emotion, and Subjective Time
This book aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of the interplay between the bodily self, emotion, and subjective time perception, consciousness, as well as clinical implications with a primary focus on the groundbreaking work of A.D. (Bud) Craig. By delving into Craig's contributions to interoception and his insights into the sense of a time within the context of the bodily self, this volume offers an in-depth understanding of the neural and psychological mechanisms underlying these phenomena. This book seeks to bring together leading experts from various disciplines such as neurophysiology, medicine, cognitive neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy, who explore in their chapters specific aspects of (1) interoception, (2) emotions, (3) time perception, (4) consciousness, (5) mental health, and their intersections. The result is an invaluable resource for researchers, clinicians, and scholars interested in the embodiment of behavior and experience.
A Brain for Innovation
What sets humans apart from other animals? Perhaps more than anything else, it is the capacity for innovation. The accumulation of discoveries throughout history, big and small, has enabled us to build global civilizations and gain power to shape our environment. But what makes humans as a species so innovative? Min W. Jung offers a new understanding of the neural basis of innovation in terms of humans’ exceptional capacity for imagination and high-level abstraction. He provides an engaging account of recent advances in neuroscience that have shed light on the neural underpinnings of these profoundly important abilities. Jung examines key discoveries concerning the hippocampus and neural c...
Steroids and the Nervous System
This volume covers emerging and intriguing topics related to research into steroids and the nervous system, with a major focus on glucocorticoids, non-classical mechanism of action, regulation of reproduction, steroids and glial cells, behavioural effects and pathological correlations.
Out of Love for My Kin
In Out of Love for My Kin, Amy Livingstone examines the personal dimensions of the lives of aristocrats in the Loire region of France during the eleventh and twelfth centuries. She argues for a new conceptualization of aristocratic family life based on an ethos of inclusion. Inclusivity is evident in the care that medieval aristocrats showed toward their families by putting in place strategies, practices, and behaviors aimed at providing for a wide range of relatives. Indeed, this care—and in some cases outright affection—for family members is recorded in the documents themselves, as many a nobleman and woman made pious benefactions "out of love for my kin." In a book made rich by eviden...
The Rhesus Monkey Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates
The Rhesus Monkey Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates is the most comprehensive and accurate atlas of the monkey brain. The fourth edition of this classic book is a complete revision featuring many improvements and upgrades. Constructed by the established leaders in neuroanatomical atlas development, the new edition will continue to be the indispensable resource for all scientists working on the primate nervous system. - 141 completely revised coronal diagrams and accompanying colour photographic plates spaced at approximately 120 μm intervals - 60 colour photographic coronal plates of SMI immunoreactivity with completely revised delineations - Includes MR images at approximately the same levels as the coronal diagrams - Follows the same nomenclature and abbreviations as the mouse, rat, chicken, marmoset and human brain atlases, with indications of correspondence to alternative macaque nomenclatures - This atlas was used for the delineation and nomenclature of MRI-based macaque brain atlases for neuroimaging analyses, including the SARM
