Biofeedback and Pain Management: A Clinical Guide is a practical and informative reference to help readers have a better understanding of the psychophysiology of chronic pain, biofeedback treatments, realities of living life with chronic limitations related to pain, and the role of pain in our lives and society. The book aims to organize available evidence on effective uses of biofeedback interventions for pain management, including protocols, as well as case-based examples and strategies that practitioners can refer to in real-life settings. Biofeedback and Pain Management is organized into three sections. In the first section, "Psychophysiology of Pain," a clear treatment rationale for the use of biofeedback is illustrated, including patient-friendly language about what is biofeedback and illustrations depicting how biofeedback is a useful part of any pain management treatment plan. In the next section, "Biofeedback Protocols," procedures are detailed based on evidence as well as case-based examples. This section is the heart of the book and offers essential strategies that readers can refer to on an as-needed basis. The final section, "Community Pain," explores the larger social context of chronic pain, the toll it has on public health and the ongoing role of healthcare providers who witness pain-related suffering.

The Life of an Evolutionary Naturalist

Enchanted by Daphne

Glial Mechanisms in Sleep and Circadian Biology presents a comprehensive and up-to-date discussion of the role of glial cells in numerous, often unexpected, aspects of sleep. It seamlessly links glial cell activity to the multi-system processes that affect sleep. Experts in the field discuss how glial cells influence the sleep-wake cycle, the accumulation and discharge of sleep drive, the timing of sleep and wake across the 24-hour day, and how glial cells may govern important sleep functions (e.g., brain plasticity and metabolism). This is a book that could well change scientists’ and practitioners’ traditional beliefs about the factors underlying sleep. Users will find the book's content at the forefront of one of the hottest topics in basic sleep research. Over the last decade, scientists have made breakthrough discoveries revealing that sleep is not only a product of neurons, but of neuronal-glial interactions.

European Ethnobotany

<div>Ethnobiology is the study of the dynamic relationship between plants, animals, people, and the environment. Academic and applied interests include ethnobotany, ethnozoology, linguistics, paleoethnobotany, zooarchaeology, ethnoecology, and many others. The field lies at a dynamic intersection between the social and biological sciences. The major contribution from the biological sciences has come from economic botany, which has a rich historical and scientific tradition. </div><div>
</div><div>The Balkans MRW (online and print) Volume will cover this European Macroregion. The content will focus on the ethnobotany of wild plants in this Macroregion and it will be first developed as an online site and, later, when all of the planned topics have been covered for this specific volume, printed in a hard copy version. The online site will remain live and be available for updates (with new monographs [if not covered initially due to lack of research]). </div><div>
</div><div>The content will be divided into sections covering countries (or groups of countries), based on plant diversity and not necessarily political or national boundaries. The Balkans volume will have an Introduction (4,000-6,000 words); 50 200 plant monographs (10 to maximum 50 monographs per country) with each monograph having a length of ~1,500 words (with references), plus 2-4 photographs. To further define the content, the plant monographs will be divided into five major categories (food; medicine/cosmetic; veterinary; handicraft plants; and ritual/folkloric uses) and include notes. The number of the monographs in every category will be negotiated depending on the advances of the ethnobotanical research in each specific country, or group of countries. The main criteria for the inclusion of a given plant will be its cultural salience within a given country (assessed by the Volume Editor). References will be given at the end of the Introduction and each monograph.

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.

Macroevolution of Complex Morphologies

This book introduces factor analysis methods for the study of multivariate stochastic processes whose structure evolves over time. It introduces the theory of factor analysis and evolutionary stochastic processes and combines that to study evolutionary factor models. The book includes many real examples to illustrate applications from such fields as macroeconomics, finance, neuroscience, communication, and psychology. MATLAB® and R code is included throughout the book for implementation of the methods.

Aortic Valve Repair provides a comprehensive summary on techniques developed during the first 500 cases of aortic ring annuloplasty. Aortic valve disease is usually surgically managed by aortic valve replacement, and it is well established in published literature regarding the long-term results, survival rate, durability of the protheses and reoperations rates. Over the past two decades, aortic valve repair (AVr) has evolved into a recognized surgical option for selected patients with aortic insufficiency or proximal aorta aneurysm. Studying the first 500 cases of aortic ring annuloplasty, the authors provide the most effective methods of leaflet and aortic root reconstruction to repair pathologies. Including original illustrations and videos, the book serves as an essential reference for cardiac surgeons in practice.

A comprehensive overview of the behavioral ecology of a highly social group of North American mammalsBest known for their large colonies, complex burrows, and frequent alarm calls, prairie dogs are diurnal, herbivorous rodents endemic to the grasslands of western North America. Prairie Dogs synthesizes forty-five consecutive years of John Hoogland's pioneering field research on the ecology and social behavior of these remarkable animals, including many far-reaching discoveries published here for the first time. Hoogland investigates all four species of prairie dogs that inhabit the western United States, offering invaluable insights about cooperation and competition among social animals living under natural conditions. He examines topics ranging from alarm calls, mating, predation, and vigilance to conservation, dispersal, population dynamics, and potential avenues for future research. Hoogland presents a wealth of new findings, describing how prairie dogs give alarm calls not only for offspring but also for more distant kin such as nieces, nephews, and first cousins. He documents how females reap substantial benefits from copulating with more than one male; how they avoid incest with offspring, parents, and siblings but regularly copulate with more distant kin; how nonparental infanticide is a major cause of juvenile mortality and varies directly with colony density; and how females of one species improve reproductive success by killing nearby ground squirrels. Rich in personal stories and comparisons with more than five hundred other species ranging from amoebas to humans, this beautifully illustrated book is essential reading for behavioral ecologists and conservation biologists as well as mammalogists and curious naturalists. Hoogland's magnum opus offers a master class in how to do careful long-term research.
