In Vivo Optical Imaging of Brain Function, Second Edition

In Vivo Optical Imaging of Brain Function, Second Edition (Frontiers in Neuroscience) By Ron Frostig Publisher: CRC Number Of Pages: 428 Publication Date: 2009-05-06 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1420076841 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781420076844 Product Description: Updated to reflect continuous development in this emerging area, this new edition, as with the original, reaches across disciplines to review a variety of noninvasive optical techniques used to study activity in the living brain. Leading authorities from such diverse areas as optical hardware, cognitive behavior, and neuroscience present a host of perspectives that range from a single neuron to large assemblies of neurons several million strong, captured at various temporal and spatial resolutions

Coordinated Activity in the Brain

Coordinated Activity in the Brain: Measurements and Relevance to Brain Function and Behavior (Springer Series in Computational Neuroscience) By Jose Luis Perez Velazquez, Richard Wennberg Publisher: Springer Number Of Pages: 265 Publication Date: 2009-06-11 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 038793796X ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780387937960 Product Description: Increasing interest in the study of coordinated activity of brain cell ensembles reflects the current conceptualization of brain information processing and cognition. It is thought that cognitive processes involve not only serial stages of sensory signal processing, but also massive parallel information processing circuitries, and therefore it is the coordinated activity of neuronal networks of brains that give rise to cognition and consciousness in general. While the concepts and techniques to measure synchronization are relatively well characterized and developed in the mathematics and physics community, the measurement of coordinated activity derived from brain signals is not a trivial task, and is currently a subject of debate.

Visceral Sensory Neuroscience: Interoception

Visceral Sensory Neuroscience: Interoception http://www.book4doc.com/29450 Visceral Sensory Neuroscience: Interoception Publisher:Oxford University Press, USA | 2001-12-15 | 276 Pages | ISBN: 0195136012 | PDF | 20 MB | Rapidshare&Hotfile It has been known for over a century that there is an afferent(body-to-brain), as well as an efferent(brain-to-body), component to the visceral-atonomic nervous system. Despite the fundamental importance of bodily afferent information- sometimes called interoception- to central nervous system control of visceral organ function, emotional-motivational processes, and dysfunction of these processes, including psychosomatic disorders, its role did not receive much attention until quite recently.

Mirror Neuron Systems: The Role of Mirroring Processes in Social Cognition

Mirror Neuron Systems: The Role of Mirroring Processes in Social Cognition (Contemporary Neuroscience) By Jaime A. Pineda Publisher: Humana Press Number Of Pages: 376 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1934115347 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781934115343 Product Description: The discovery of mirror neurons and of a mirror neuron system in the human brain raises the interesting possibility that mirroring may constitute novel instances of mental simulation. It also provides the basis for unique processes such as mindreading, the ability to make inferences about the actions of others
