  • The Neurobiology of the Gilles De La Tourette Syndrome and Chronic Tics: Part A

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 3
    • English
    The Neurobiology of the Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome and Chronic Tics, Volume Three reviews historical background and current nosology and guidelines. In addition, it includes an overview of pathophysiology, ranging from its genetic basis and changes in neurochemistry and electrophysiology to widespread neural circuits. Specific chapters cover Tourette syndrome from phenomenology and natural history to neurobiology, Update and Recent progress in the Neurobiology of Tourette Syndrome, Current guidelines and nosology of Tourette syndrome, Neuroimaging applications in Tourette's Syndrome, Clinical and neurodevelopmental brain imaging of Tourette syndrome, Altered Structural Connectivity in Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome, and much more. The last 20 years have seen an exponential growing body of research dedicated to Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome in the understanding of the syndrome’s complex genetics and underlying neurobiology. This unprecedented surge in basic and clinical research has resulted in over 3,000 scientific publications.

  • Dimensions of Uncertainty in Communication Engineering

    • 1st Edition
    • Ezio Biglieri
    • English
    Dimensions of Uncertainty in Communication Engineering is a comprehensive and self-contained introduction to the problems of nonaleatory uncertainty and the mathematical tools needed to solve them. The book gathers together tools derived from statistics, information theory, moment theory, interval analysis and probability boxes, dependence bounds, nonadditive measures, and Dempster–Shafer theory. While the book is mainly devoted to communication engineering, the techniques described are also of interest to other application areas, and commonalities to these are often alluded to through a number of references to books and research papers. This is an ideal supplementary book for courses in wireless communications, providing techniques for addressing epistemic uncertainty, as well as an important resource for researchers and industry engineers. Students and researchers in other fields such as statistics, financial mathematics, and transport theory will gain an overview and understanding on these methods relevant to their field.

  • Immunology of Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Implantation Failure

    • 1st Edition
    • Joanna Kwak-Kim
    • English
    Immunology of Recurrent Pregnancy Loss provides doctors and immunologists with the information they need to help couples who experience recurrent pregnancy losses. Sections cover unexplained infertility, repeated in vitro fertilization, embryo transfer failures, history of second or third trimester pregnancy losses of unknown cause, or pregnancy with a history of or active autoimmune and/or alloimmune disease. Reproductive failure (RF), including recurrent pregnancy losses (RPL) and repeated implantation failures (RIF) is rather a syndrome than a disease caused by multiple etiologies, such as anatomical, endocrine, genetic, infectious, immunological, thrombotic and unexplained etiologies, hence this book strives to present the latest information. In 27 chapters, divided in 5 sections, the book introduces the current update of reproductive immunology topics in RF and provides systematic diagnostic guidelines, systemic and immune etiologies and therapeutic approaches.

  • Genetics and the Behavior of Domestic Animals

    • 3rd Edition
    • Temple Grandin
    • English
    Genetics and the Behavior of Domestic Animals, Third Edition offers the latest and most valuable information on animal science and behavioral genetics, carrying on the book’s legacy since its original publication in 1998. This book synthesizes research from behavioral genetics and animal and veterinary science, bridging the gap between these fields. The objective is to show that principles of behavioral genetics have practical applications to agricultural and companion animals. The continuing domestication of animals is a complex process whose myriad impacts on animal behavior are commonly under-appreciated. Genetic factors play a significant role in both species-specific behaviors and behavioral differences exhibited by individuals in the same species. Leading authorities explore the impact of increased intensities of selection on domestic animal behavior. Rodents, cattle, pigs, sheep, horses, herding and guard dogs, and poultry are all included in these discussions of genetics and behavior, making this book useful to veterinarians, livestock producers, laboratory animal researchers and technicians, animal trainers and breeders, and any researcher interested in animal behavior. Genetics and the Behavior of Domestic Animals, Third Edition is the most valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in animal and veterinary science, animal behavior, genetics, ethology, and similar fields. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines will also benefit from the global expertise featured in this newest edition.
