ACSM's Advanced Exercise Physiology

Written by international experts in physiology, exercise physiology, and research, ACSM's Advanced Exercise Physiology gives students an advanced level of understanding of exercise physiology. It emphasizes the acute and chronic effects of exercise on various physiological systems in adults and the integrative nature of these physiological responses. Chapters detail how different body systems respond to exercise. Systems include nervous, skeletal, muscular, respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, metabolic, endocrine, immune, renal, and hematopoietic systems. Additional chapters explain how these responses are altered by heat, cold, hypoxia, microgravity, bed rest, and hyperbaria. Milestones of Discovery pages describe classic or memorable experiments in exercise physiology.

Life and Physical Sciences Research for a New Era of Space Exploration

In response to requests from Congress, NASA asked the National Research Council to undertake a decadal survey of life and physical sciences in microgravity. Developed in consultation with members of the life and physical sciences communities, the guiding principle for the study is to set an agenda for research for the next decade that will allow the use of the space environment to solve complex problems in life and physical sciences so as to deliver both new knowledge and practical benefits for humankind as we become a spacefaring people. The project's statement of task calls for delivery of two books-an interim report and a final survey report. Although the development of specific recommendations is deferred until the final book, this interim report does attempt to identify programmatic needs and issues to guide near-term decisions that are critical to strengthening the organization and management of life and physical sciences research at NASA.

Recapturing a Future for Space Exploration

More than four decades have passed since a human first set foot on the Moon. Great strides have been made in our understanding of what is required to support an enduring human presence in space, as evidenced by progressively more advanced orbiting human outposts, culminating in the current International Space Station (ISS). However, of the more than 500 humans who have so far ventured into space, most have gone only as far as near-Earth orbit, and none have traveled beyond the orbit of the Moon. Achieving humans' further progress into the solar system had proved far more difficult than imagined in the heady days of the Apollo missions, but the potential rewards remain substantial. During its...

On 5-7 December 1990, a workshop was held at the Johnson Space Center to promote communication and cross fertilization of ideas among NASA cardiopulmonary principal investigators. This was the first such meeting of cardiopulmonary investigators sponsored by the Johnson Space Center, Kennedy Space Center, and the Ames Research Center. Each principal investigator gave a 20-minute summary of recent progress in his or her laboratory. Topics covered included flight echocardiography (J. Charles), pulmonary function (H. Guy), central hemodynamics (R. Latham), glycerol hyperhydration (M. Riedesel), spectral analysis (C. Knapp and A. Goldberger), lower body negative pressure countermeasures (S. Fortney), orthostatic tolerancy (J. Buckey), autonomic function (V. Convertino, M. Smith, D. Eckberg), cardiac deconditioning (C. Tipton), fluid and renal responses to head-down tilt (B. Tucker), local fluid regulation (A. Hargens), endocrine regulation during bedrest (J. Vernikos, C. Wade), autogenic feedback (P. Cowings), and chronic cardiovascular measurements (S. Vatner). The program ended with a general discussion of weightless models and countermeasures. Publisher.
