Curt Richter: A Life in the Laboratory
ISBN: 9780801880735 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the first half of the twentieth century, psychology was a discipline in search of scientific legitimacy. Debates raged over how much of human and animal behavior is instinctive and how much is learned, and how behavior could be quantified accurately. At the Johns Hopkins University's new Phipps Psychiatric Clinic, Curt P. Richter stood aside from these heated theoretical arguments, choosing instead to apply his data-collection methods, innovative measurement techniques, playful sense of exploration, and consummate surgical skill to laboratory examinations of the biological basis of...

The CRF Signal
ISBN: 9780198793694 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Information molecules, such as Cortico-Releasing Factor (CRF), are ancient and widely distributed across diverse organs, playing various regulatory roles. CRF has been associated with a range of human conditions, including fear and anxiety, social contact, and most recently, addiction - in particular the euphoric feelings associated with alcohol consumption. Since its original discovery, research has unearthed that the role of this molecule is much broader than first thought. The scientific community now knows that CRF is a dynamic and diversely widespread peptide hormone that plays many...

Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., Pragmatism and Neuroscience
ISBN: 9783030231026 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 355 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the cultures of philosophy and the law as they interact with neuroscience and biology, through the perspective of American jurist Oliver Wendell Holmes’ Jr., and the pragmatist tradition of John Dewey. Schulkin proposes that human problem solving and the law are tied to a naturalistic, realistic and an anthropological understanding of the human condition. The situated character of legal reasoning, given its complexity, like reasoning in neuroscience, can be notoriously fallible. Legal and scientific reasoning is to be understood within a broader context in...

Sport: A Biological, Philosophical, and Cultural Perspective
ISBN: 9780231176767 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Sports are as varied as the people who play them. We run, jump, and swim. We kick, hit, and shoot balls. We ride sleds in the snow and surf in the sea. From the Olympians of ancient Greece to today's professional athletes, from adult pickup soccer games to children's gymnastics classes, people at all levels of ability at all times and in all places have engaged in sport. What drives this phenomenon? In Sport, the neuroscientist Jay Schulkin argues that biology and culture do more than coexist when we play sports--they blend together seamlessly, propelling each other toward greater...

The Neuroendocrine Regulation of Behavior
ISBN: 9780521459853 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This reference discusses the important role of steroids and neuropeptides in the regulation of behavior. The guiding principle behind the discussion is the concept of using good model animal systems to help us to understand how hormones influence the brain. The book emphasizes that steroids and peptides or neuropeptides affect behavior by acting directly on the brain, and that common neural circuits underlie a variety of different central motive states. The first chapter focuses on developmental periods and sexually dimorphic behaviors; the second discusses sodium and water appetite, and...

Effort : A Behavioral Neuroscience Perspective on the Will
ISBN: 9780805860108 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In "Effort: A Behavioral Neuroscience Perspective on the Will," author Jay Schulkin presents a two-fold thesis: there is no absolute separation of the cognitive and non-cognitive brain, and there are diverse cognitive systems, many of which are embodied in motor systems that underlie self-regulation. Central to this thesis is that dopamine is the one neurotransmitter that underlies the diverse senses of effort, and is apparent in most everyday activity, whether solving a problem in our head or moving about.
As scientific literature abounds with studies of decision-making and effort, this... In "Effort: A Behavioral Neuroscience Perspective on the Will," author Jay Schulkin presents a two-fold thesis: there is no absolute separation of the...

Reflections on the Musical Mind: An Evolutionary Perspective
ISBN: 9780691157443 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What's so special about music? We experience it internally, yet at the same time it is highly social. Music engages our cognitive/affective and sensory systems. We use music to communicate with one another--and even with other species--the things that we cannot express through language. Music is both ancient and ever evolving. Without music, our world is missing something essential. In Reflections on the Musical Mind, Jay Schulkin offers a social and behavioral neuroscientific explanation of why music matters. His aim is not to provide a grand, unifying theory. Instead, the... What's so special about music? We experience it internally, yet at the same time it is highly social.

Sodium Hunger
ISBN: 9780521353687 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The phenomenon of sodium hunger was discovered by Curt Richter, the great American psychobiologist, over fifty years ago, and has since been the source of intense study by naturalists, psychologists, endocrinologists, physiologists, and neuroscientists. In this account, Professor Schulkin uses hunger for sodium as a model system in which to study how the brain produces motivated behavior. He offers a systematic account of the behavior of the sodium hungry animal and explores the endocrinological and physiological mechanisms that maintain sodium balance and then act on the brain to promote the...

Action, Perception and the Brain: Adaptation and Cephalic Expression
ISBN: 9781349328444 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Theories of brain evolution stress communication and sociality are essential to our capacity to represent objects as intersubjectively accessible. How did we grow as a species to be able to recognize objects as common, as that which can also be seen in much the same way by others? Such constitution of intersubjectively accessible objects is bound up with our flexible and sophisticated capacities for social cognition understanding others and their desires, intentions, emotions, and moods which are crucial to the way human beings live. This book is about contemporary philosophical and...

Allostasis, Homeostasis, and the Costs of Physiological Adaptation
ISBN: 9780521811415 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In contrast to homeostasis, allostasis refers to the relatively new idea of "viability through change." This book addresses basic physiological regulatory systems, and examines bodily regulation under duress. It integrates the basic concepts of physiological homeostasis with disorders such as depression, stress, anxiety and addiction. It will interest graduate students, medical students, and researchers in physiology, epidemiology, endocrinology, neuroendocrinology, neuroscience, and psychology.

Calcium Hunger: Behavioral and Biological Regulation
ISBN: 9780521795517 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book brings together the behavioral, physiological, and neuroendocrine regulation of calcium. An understanding of how the brain orchestrates whole-body demands for calcium is introduced. The approach is one in which behavior in addition to physiology serves bodily maintenance. The book links basic and clinical literature surrounding calcium homeostasis, as a wide variety of clinical syndromes are tied to calcium metabolism. Because calcium is so important during life stages particular to women, an emphasis is placed on the relevance of calcium to women's health throughout the book,...

Pragmatism and the Search for Coherence in Neuroscience
ISBN: 9781137526724 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. We have known for over a thousand years that the brain underlies behavioral expression, but effective scientific study of the brain is only very recent. Two things converge in this book: a great respect for neuroscience and its many variations, and a sense of investigation and inquiry demythologized. Think of it as foraging for coherence.
