    • English
    Written by leading experts in the field, the fifth edition of the Cell Physiology Sourcebook, Fifth Edition offers a critical, comprehensive, and multidisciplinary overview of essential aspects of cell physiology and biophysics, spanning from bacterial and archaeal cells to mammalian cells and tissues. The present edition incorporates new molecular insights without losing the integrative perspective of cell physiology and biophysics, as well as its foundational concepts. Our target readers are advanced students and researchers interested in understanding how cells work.The history of this book goes back to Hugh Davson’s classic A Textbook of General Physiology, which reached its fourth and last edition in 1970. The successor of this influential work was Cell Physiology Sourcebook, first published in 1995 and edited by the late Professor Nicholas Sperelakis, with a foreword written by Davson. At that time, the knowledge of molecular and cell physiology became so vast that a single author's work, like its predecessor, was materially impossible. Professor Sperelakis, for whom we dedicate the present edition, put together an impressive volume with the contribution of various experts in fundamental areas of the field until the 4th edition, published in 2012, one year before his death. This book's success and the gap it fills motivated the present editors to continue this project, updating the entire book to reflect new developments.

    The Handbook of Non-Invasive Transcranial Brain Stimulation in the Cognitive Domain: Methods, Psychophysiology, Neuroenhancement and Therapeutic Applications presents the latest scientific insights and technological advancements in the field of noninvasive transcranial brain stimulation (NIBS) within the cognitive domain. This comprehensive volume reviews published research and explores future directions for the use of NIBS techniques, in particular repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and low-intensity transcranial electrical stimulation (tDCS, tACS), to study and modulate human cognition as well as to treat various psychiatric and neurological disorders from a neurocognitive perspective. By integrating findings from preclinical animal studies, modeling approaches, and research, this book sheds light on the neurobiological mechanisms underlying cognitive processes and neuroplasticity. It provides a detailed analysis of how NIBS affects psychophysiology and cognitive performance in healthy populations while offering insights into its therapeutic potential for patients with cognitive impairments across a wide range of neuropsychiatric disorders.This handbook offers an unparalleled gateway to the dynamic and rapidly advancing field of neuromodulation and serves as an essential resource for researchers, clinicians, students, and policymakers.
