Beschreibung
This book covers recent advances in the understanding of brain structure, function and disorders based on the fundamental principles of physics. It covers a broad range of physical phenomena occurring in the brain circuits for perception, cognition, emotion and action, representing the building blocks of the mind. It provides novel insights into the devastating brain disorders of the mind such as schizophrenia, dementia, autism, aging or addictions, as well as into the new devices for brain repair. The book is aimed at basic researchers in the fields of neuroscience, physics, biophysics and clinicians in the fields of neurology, neurosurgery, psychology, psychiatry.
Unique approach to the brain functions through the laws of physics
Renowned experts of various disciplines
A book that summarizes our knowledge in the most challenging area of neuroscience
The book provides a walking tour spanning introspection, behaviourism, the cognitive revolution to recent advances in neuroimaging and electrophysiology
Summarizes a new discipline in the making, the science of the mind
