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...

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...

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...

The Neuroendocrine Regulation of Behavior
ISBN: 9780521453851 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 336 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...

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.

Cognitive Adaptation: A Pragmatist Perspective
ISBN: 9781107462717 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Cognitive Adaptation: A Pragmatist Perspective argues that there is a fundamental link between cognitive/neural systems and evolution that underlies human activity. One important result is that the line between nature and culture and scientific and humanistic inquiry is quite permeable - the two are fairly continuous with each other. Two concepts figure importantly in our human ascent: agency and animacy. The first is the recognition of another person as having beliefs, desires, and a sense of experience. The second term is the recognition of an object as alive, a piece of biology. Both...

Missed Information: Better Information for Building a Wealthier, More Sustainable Future
ISBN: 9780262534505 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Information is power. It drives commerce, protects nations, and forms the backbone of systems that range from health care to high finance. Yet despite the avalanche of data available in today's information age, neither institutions nor individuals get the information they truly need to make well-informed decisions. Faulty information and sub-optimal decision-making create an imbalance of power that is exaggerated as governments and corporations amass enormous databases on each of us. Who has more power: the government, in possession of uncounted terabytes of data (some of it obtained by... Information is power.

Changing Landscape of Academic Women's Health Care in the United States
ISBN: 9789400709300 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since 2005 a dozen states and more than 15 specialties have reported a physician shortage or anticipate one in the next few years. This anticipated shortage and a worsening of physician distribution are compounded by a projected increased demand for women's healthcare services. Women's healthcare is particularly vulnerable, because the obstetrician-gynecologist workforce is aging and is among the least satisfied medical specialists. Furthermore, fellowship training in women's healthcare in internal medicine and in maternal child health in family and community medicine involves only a small...
