Neurobehavioral Aspects of Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis is the most common neurological disease affecting young and middle-aged adults, and while much is known about its classic motor and sensory symptoms, it has only been during the past decade, with the advent of specialized neuropsychological test procedures and brain imaging methods, that the cognitive and behavioral changes associated with the disorder have come to be better understood. This book charts that recent progress. It provides a balanced, interdisciplinary view, covering the prevalence, range, type, and course of cognitive and affective disturbances in multiple sclerosis; the interrelationship of the neurobehavioral disturbance with brain abnormalities as visualized by neuroimaging; and the impact of cognitive and behavioral disabilities on patient rehabilitation. The book will be of value to all physicians and psychologists who deal with MS patients. It will update their knowledge of the disease and its ramifications, and will help in communicating this information to patients and their families.
The Filleys
The Filleys: 350 Years of American Entrepreneurial Spirit provides snapshots into American entrepreneurship history for a broad readership through a series of biographic essays. These stories, centering on the accomplishments of one family, provide vivid insights into entrepreneurialism in America, spatially across the country and temporally over three centuries. Author Don Southerton guides the reader through multiple generations of the Filley family beginning in 17th century Puritan New England. The saga includes the rise of the Yankee trader, land speculation, and the development of American manufacturing. The Filley business endeavors represent a slice of the American entrepreneurial experience. Moreover, this experience was shared by many thousands of other Americans whose families can be traced to colonial times. Together, they raised families, embraced capitalism, and built this country. The portraits of people and events in this saga provide us with a revealing and instructive glimpse into times long gone, and allow us to connect vicariously to a part of our collective past.

A Return Journey
The Return Journey is the result of Susan Matthews Petrovski's personal journals during her mother's 8-year Alzheimer's journey and her correspondence with other Alzheimer's caregivers kind enough to share their innermost feelings and emotions. These caregivers' stories are an inside view into the lessons to be learned from looking through the personal peephole of family members at the heart of the Alzheimer's experience. Petrovski examines right and wrong choices, which will help those whose Alzheimer's journey or caregiving journey is just beginning, clearly and wisely explaining that with Alzheimer's there are no "right" ways, no "best" decisions, and no "perfect" answers.
Handbook of Traumatic Brain Injury and Neurodegeneration
Holbourne’s theory that rotational head movement and shear strains were limiting factors in producing acute parenchymal brain damage was a watershed moment in understanding traumatic brain injury (TBI). Long term effects, and in particular neurodegenerative proteinopathy subsequent to TBI, remain theoretical, notwithstanding the poorly understood ‘punch drunk’ syndrome of the early and mid-20th century, and the 21st century concept of chronic traumatic encephalopathy. This book, the Handbook of Traumatic Brain Injury and Neurodegeneration, has as its theme the marriage between neurodegenerative disease and neurotrauma through TBI surrogates such as sport, military service, and experime...
