The care of stroke patients has changed dramatically in recent years. As well as improvements in the emergency care of the condition, there have been marked advances in our understanding, management and rehabilitation of residual deficits. This book is about the care of stroke patients, focusing on behavioral and cognitive problems. It provides a comprehensive review of the field covering the diagnostic value of these conditions, in the acute and later phases, their requirements in terms of treatment and management, and the likelihood and significance of long-term disability. • Providesacomprehensivereviewofthe

Palliative NeurologyIan MaddocksFlinders University of South Australia

Heather WaddyWakefield Hospital Specialist Centre, Adelaide

and Ian WilliamsWalton Centre for Neurology & Neurosurgery

Techniques of palliative care have evolved as a reaction to discomforts such as pain in terminal cancer. Neurological disorders, including dementia, stroke, Parkinson’s disease or multiple sclerosis cause different discomforts, and they commonly persist for years. This handbook offers practical advice about how the multi-disciplinary approach to comprehensive care that developed in early models of palliative management can bring support and symptom relief to those who suffer from chronic neurological diseases. It should be read by clinicians and allied health professionals involved in the care of those with neurological disorders.

olfaction and the BrainEdited by Warrick J. BrewerUniversity of Melbourne

David CastleUniversity of Melbourne

and Christos PantelisSunshine Hospital, Melbourne

Foreword by Peter DohertyOlfaction is of particular interest to specialists in schizophrenia. Clear deficits in the sense of smell could be used to predict schizophrenia in the future. In this timely book, Warrick Brewer and his team of experts set out our current understanding of olfaction and mental health, including where it may take us in the future. All aspects of olfactory function and dysfunction are covered, drawing on the latest neuroimaging techniques where appropriate. • Comprehensivecoverageoftheprinciplesof

Brain NorepinephrineNeurobiology and TherapeuticsEdited by Gregory A. OrdwayEast Tennessee State University

Michael A. SchwartzUniversity of Hawai’i, Manoa

and Alan FrazerUniversity of Texas Health Science Center, San Antonio

Norepinephrine is a chemical neurotransmitter. Noradrenergic drugs have been proven effective for depression and ADHD, and drugs that directly manipulate central nervous system (CNS) norepinephrine are being developed targeting noradrenergic neurons to deliver therapeutic effects for new disease indications. Recent discoveries about norepinephrine’s contribution to health, disease, and therapy make this synthesis of evidence, practice and research very timely. The book is divided into four sections: basic biology; norepinephrine’s role in behavior; its role in CNS diseases, and the pharmacology and therapeutics of noradrenergic drugs for psychiatric and neurological disorders.• Up-to-the-minutereviewofthebiologyof

NeUroPSyCHIATry / NeUroPSyCHoLogyThe Clinical Neuropsychiatry of StrokeCognitive, Behavioral and emotional Disorders following Vascular Brain InjurySecond editionRobert G. RobinsonCollege of Medicine, University of Iowa

Fully revised, this new edition covers the range of neuropsychiatric syndromes associated with stroke, including cognitive, emotional and behavioural disorders such as depression, anxiety and psychosis. Since the last edition there has been an explosion of published literature on this topic and the book provides a comprehensive, systematic and cohesive review of this new material. There is a growing recognition among a wide range of clinicians and allied healthcare staff that post-stroke neuropsychiatric syndromes are common and serious. Such complications can have a negative impact on recovery and even survival.

Community rehabilitation in NeurologyMichael P. Barnesand Harriet RadermacherBoth from University of Newcastle upon Tyne

This book analyses community rehabilitation needs from many different perspectives, including the views of disabled people, rehabilitation clinicians and service providers. Many examples of community rehabilitation schemes are presented, with evidence for their effectiveness, and case studies are used to highlight the main issues. The authors take an international view, and there are chapters dealing with the disabled child in the community and with neuropsychological rehabilitation. The first book to examine the growing trend towards community rehabilitation in neurology, it is directed towards all clinicians involved with neurorehabilitation.

JoUrNALSClinical Mr NeuroimagingDiffusion, Perfusion and SpectroscopyEdited by Jonathan H. GillardUniversity of Cambridge

Adam D. WaldmanCharing Cross Hospital, London

and Peter B. BarkerThe Johns Hopkins University

The physiological magnetic resonance techniques of diffusion imaging, perfusion imaging and spectroscopy offer insights into brain structure, function and metabolism. This book provides the reader with a thorough review of the underlying physical principles of each of these methods, as well as comprehensive coverage of their clinical applications. Attention is also drawn to possible artifacts and pitfalls associated with these techniques. This book is an essential reference work for radiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons and psychiatrists who use these techniques, as well as medical researchers, residents and fellows.

Why ritualized behavior? Precaution systems and action parsing in developmental, pathological and cultural ritualsPascal Boyer & Pierre Lienard, Washington University in St. LouisStereotypic, rigidly scripted behavior is found in cultural rituals, in children’s routines, in obsessive-compulsive disorder, in normal adults around certain stages of the life-cycle. We propose an explanation in terms of an evolved Precaution System geared to the detection of and reaction to inferred threats to fitness, distinct from systemsfor manifest danger. The Precaution system includes a repertoire of potential hazards as well as a repertoire of species-typical precautions. Impairment in the system’s feed-back accounts for OCD rituals. Gradual calibration of this system occurs through childhood routines. Mimicry of this system’s natural input makes cultural rituals salient andcompelling.

Is tenure justified? An experimental study of faculty beliefs abouttenure, promotion, and academic freedomStephen J. Ceci, Cornell University, Wendy M. Williams, Cornell University,Katrin Mueller-Johnson, University of CambridgeFaculty members of all ranks were asked how colleagues of all ranks would respond when confronted with dilemmas concerning the exercise of academic freedom. Fullprofessors were perceived to be more likely to insist on academic freedom to teach unpopular courses, research controversial topics, and whistle-blow ethical wrong-doingthan were lower-ranked professors, including tenured associate professors. Everyone thought that others were more likely to exercise academic freedom than they them-selves were and that promotion to full professor was a better predictor of who would exercise academic freedom than was the awarding of tenure. These findings chal-lenge the assumption that tenure can be justified because it fosters academic freedom.
