  • Atlas of the Human Brain

    • 5th Edition
    • Juergen K Mai + 2 more
    • English
    Atlas of the Human Brain, Fifth Edition presents the anatomy of the brain at macroscopic and microscopic levels, featuring different aspects of brain morphology and topography with the most detailed and accurate delineations of brain structure. This new edition also features new diffusion tensor images (DTI), selected fiber tracts derived from tractography and depicted as "stipplings". It also includes annotated MR- and DT-images of the human brainstem. Totally new in this edition is the cortex map of von Economo and Koskinas in addition to the inclusion of Nissl plates with delineating of cortical areas (Brodmann’s areas) in serial histological sections.This is an essential guide to those working with human brain imaging or attempting to relate their observations on experimental animals to humans.

  • Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy

    • 2nd Edition
    • David Reitman + 1 more
    • English
    Traditional encyclopaedias present information in alphabetical order and are somewhat held hostage to a static structure. A digital reference can be sorted and organised more dynamically. We take advantage of this more flexible structure by cross-referencing contributions so that readers can create their own structure, one that suits their learning needs and those of their students and trainees. For example, a reader could select “child and adolescent” entries and directly cross-reference with “behavioural or cognitive/behavioura... In this edition all content is updated, and most content areas will be retained, focusing on major modes of psychotherapy practice and core psychotherapy processes. Outdated entries have been culled or combined with other entries in a manner that better communicates the content to present-day readers (e.g., “water-misting therapy” can be addressed in a more cohesive entry covering the use of punishment techniques more generally).

  • The Autism Spectrum

    Identification, Understanding, and Treatment in Global Context
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume tbd
    • Matthew K. Belmonte + 1 more
    • English
    This volume summarizes the basic and clinical sciences of autism with an understanding of how research and clinical treatment is affected by recent shifts of focus: from diagnostic categories to symptomatic dimensions, from provider-centered to patient-centered treatment approaches, from high-resource, individualistic country insights to those contributed from global cultures.This volume discusses the field’s current state, whence it has come, where it is going, and how to get there. The volume weds basic and clinical understandings, state-of-the-art multivariate analyses, historical and cross-cultural information and relevance, and a patient-centered focus.

  • The Human Nervous System

    • 4th Edition
    • George Paxinos + 2 more
    • English
    The Human Nervous System, Fourth Edition is the standard reference for the anatomy of the central and peripheral nervous system of the human. Fully revised, with new chapters covering genes and anatomy, gene expression studies, and glia cells. The book continues to be an excellent companion to the Atlas of the Human Brain, and a common nomenclature throughout the book is enforced. Physiological data, functional concepts, correlates to the neuroanatomy of the major model systems (rat and mouse), and brain function round out the new edition.All chapters are fully revised with sharper photomicrograph images and new chapters on principle fiber pathways and the isthmus and midbrain region are featured.

  • Tourette Syndrome and Other Tic Disorders

    • 1st Edition
    • Mariam Hull
    • English
    The Neuroscience of Tourette's Syndrome and Other Tic Disorders provides a foundation of the latest research into tic disorders and the brain, as well as including a comprehensive framework for the evaluation of tics. Authors across multiple specialties present the most thorough and latest knowledge of Tourette syndrome to include underlying pathophysiology, clinical presentation, how to differentiate it from other tic disorders, particularly functional tics. Clinical case studies will also feature throughout to outline challenging cases with expert commentary on evaluation and management strategies.

  • Artificial Intelligence in Behavioral and Mental Health Care

    • 2nd Edition
    • David D. Luxton
    • English
    "Artificial Intelligence in Behavioral and Mental Healthcare", Second Edition, focuses on modern developments in AI and their specific application in mental health practice and research. AI technologies are transforming how mental and behavioral health care is provided and conducted. This updated edition summarizes recent advances in artificial intelligence in mental health clinical practice and research. Each chapter provides a technical description of the advance, a review of application in clinical practice, and empirical data on clinical efficacy. In addition, each chapter includes a discussion of practical issues in clinical settings, ethical considerations, and use limitations. New to this edition are chapters on topics such as machine learning in clinical and research settings, workflow efficiency through task automation, and how AI can be used to aid in precision health and medicine. This book will be helpful to mental health practitioners interested in learning about or incorporating AI advances into their practice and for researchers interested in a comprehensive review of these advances in one source. This book helps solve the problem of disparate, non-specific, or overgeneralized information by consolidating need-to-know information in one comprehensive reference volume specific to behavioral and mental health.

  • Motor Control Methods and Clinical Applications

    • 1st Edition
    • Robert Chen + 1 more
    • English
    Motor Control Methods and Clinical Applications provides a detailed review on the use of non-invasive brain stimulation to study motor control. Split into two distinct parts, this new volume covers the latest research in motor control, including real examples of these methods in a clinical setting. The first part covers advanced methods such as transcranial magnetic, electrical and ultrasound stimulation, long latency, spinal reflexes, multichannel EMG, and EEG-EMG analyses that can be used to examine and modulate the motor system. The second part of the book addresses the clinical applications of these methods.

  • Brain Point-of-Care Ultrasound

    Practical Guide and Protocols
    • 1st Edition
    • Camilo N. Rodríguez + 6 more
    • English
    Brain Point-of-Care Ultrasound: Practical Guide and Protocols explores brain hemodynamics and parenchyma examination, providing an orderly and protocolized approach that facilitates individualized clinical decisions with ease. Covering ultrasound configuration, in-depth anatomical knowledge, and advanced parameters, this guide aims to integrate brain ultrasound seamlessly into the Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) modality, addressing the critical need for comprehensive patient assessment. From basic principles to specialized clinical situations, each section of this guide is meticulously crafted to empower practitioners with practical insights. Chapters explore Doppler spectral wave interpretation, angle correction nuances, autoregulation dynamics, and non-invasive pressure estimations, among others, thus enabling precise monitoring and targeted decision-making. With a focus on integration across disciplines and specialties, this book bridges the gap between classical pathology and contemporary practice, positioning brain ultrasound as a pivotal tool in the armamentarium of modern critical care.

    Aggressive Behavior of People with Autism and other Intellectual and Developmental Disability explores the primary factors influencing the occurrence of aggression in autistic people, offering practical suggestions for improving outcomes. Topics covered include understanding the effects of neurodevelopmental disorders, multiple factors that frequently impact the risk for aggression, common medical and neurological influences, and the effects of trauma. The book will also introduce a new model for integrating multiple influences into a contextual, functional behavior assessment.While people with autism and other intellectual and developmental disabilities receive extensive services for their behavioral health needs, many continue to struggle and lack a positive quality of life. This book covers these occurrences and the primary factors governing aggression and other externalizing behaviors.
