James A. Carr: Appetite Interrupted

Appetite Interrupted

The Role of Predators in Shaping the Behavioral Ecology and Physiology of Satiety

Prevent and Reverse Cognitive Decline and Get Smarter at Any Age

The Invincible Brain

A Guide to Theory and Method

Understanding Cognitive Neuroscience

This edited book highlights the experimental approach, using Viruses, Bacteria, lower Eukaryotes and digital organisms. The contributors illustrate approaches revolutionizing our understanding of adaptation, recombination and mutation rates, speciation and the evolutionary transitions from prokaryotic to eukaryotic and from unicellular to multicellular life forms.

Self-Regulation

In some cases in the US, offenders have been made to take anti-psychotic drugs in order to restore competence to stand trial, or even to receive punishment. If such neurointerventions can change a person's behaviour can they be used to treat and more controversially, predict and prevent crime? Once a fantasy portrayed in films such as Minority Report such questions are fast-becoming fundamental ones for policy, law and ethics. This is the first book to introduce and explain the fundamental concepts, problems and debates around neuroscience, ethics and crime. After a helpful introduction the authors examine the following topics: Criminal justice, harm and the problem of punishment: why punish? Cognitive and behavioural neuroscience: a short introductionReading minds: can brain scans replace lie detector tests and predict reoffending?Neuroscientific assessments of competency Compulsory neurointerventions: can changing the brain be used to increase empathy and reduce violent urges?Voluntary neurointervention: is it wrong to administer neurointerventions even if the offender agrees to receive the neurointervention?Neuroscience, free will and moral responsibilityBroader issues in criminal justice, including the justification of criminal punishment and the role of moral intuitions in decision-making. Additional features, such as chapter summaries, annotated further reading and a glossary make this an excellent resource for students of philosophy and those in related disciplines such as philosophy, criminology, law and criminal justice.

An Introduction

Neuroscience, Ethics, and Criminal Punishment

Adolescence and Society

The aim of this book is to describe what we know about the adolescent brain from a neuroscience perspective, to increase knowledge and understanding among students and professionals.

Adolescence and the Brain

This book succinctly reviews phylogenetic debates for fishes by considering the historical background, summarizing the controversies, sorting through and evaluating competing modern phylogenetic proposals, and synthesizing the results for each major fish group. It evaluates the leading hypotheses in terms of their significance and their implications for the comparative biology of fishes. It asks whether phylogeny makes sense and examines its ability to explain the known facts about a group of fishes.

Cholesterol Metabolism in Aging and Disease provides in-depth coverage on the mechanistic intersection between the aging process and cholesterol metabolism. The book covers the discovery of cholesterol, its biochemistry, and how it came to have such a prominent role in aging and disease. Important areas such as cholesterol biosynthesis and cellular cholesterol homeostasis are described in detail. Technological advancements in computational modeling are also discussed to help improve our understanding of cholesterol metabolism so that new therapeutic avenues are opened to help treat age-related diseases associated with the dysregulation of this key system. This is a must have reference for students and researchers interested in, or working in, various aspects of aging. In addition, it is ideal for clinician researchers and gerontologists.

Species and Systematics

A goal of macroevolutionary theory is to explain both diversity and disparity - different sometimes uncorrelated characteristics of lineages. These actively researched questions, the growing number of case studies, and the increasingly rigorous theory, has resulted in the re-examination of classical models for evolutionary tempo and mode. Time-calibrated molecular phylogenies are now used in conjunction with quantitative analyses of morphology to evaluate models of evolution. For example, mathematically simple efforts to understand biologically complex traits (such as body size) are common. The major objective of the proposed work is to present novel methods and case-studies of the tempo and mode of evolution of complex morphologies. Recent innovations in methods for describing and modeling complex morphologies, which have the potential to advance the field still further, will be the primary focus of this intended volume.

This book illustrates how the choice of relevant data collection and data analysis techniques is critical for a sound and objective description of the complexity of space-time patterns and processes in ecology and the aquatic sciences. It reviews the concept of complexity in a general ecological context, before introducing a unifying definition of complexity in marine ecology. The book shows that convincing results can arise from very simple, sound, and well-thought-out approaches. The authors underline the risks related to modern techniques of data assimilation that can lead to data inundation, a loss of focus, and ultimately an erroneous scientific approach.

Interpreting Ecological Complexity

Playing is an essential part of psychotherapy, and sandplay in particular allows for the development of an active tie between the therapist and the patient. This book analyses the elements that are introduced into therapy through sandplay: implicit memory, the embodied self and empathy, as well as the relationship that is created through the process of this type of therapy. Napoliello focuses on sandplay, but the use of the ideas here extends to the importance of activating a dimension of play in a patient as a way to bridge a link between the conscious and subconscious, on the importance of body language and using past experience to decipher the meaning of physical movements.
