Music, Brain, and Rehabilitation: Emerging Therapeutic Applications and Potential Neural Mechanisms
Music is an important source of enjoyment, learning, and well-being in life as well as a rich, powerful, and versatile stimulus for the brain. With the advance of modern neuroimaging techniques during the past decades, we are now beginning to understand better what goes on in the healthy brain when we hear, play, think, and feel music and how the structure and function of the brain can change as a result of musical training and expertise. For more than a century, music has also been studied in the field of neurology where the focus has mostly been on musical deficits and symptoms caused by neurological illness (e.g., amusia, musicogenic epilepsy) or on occupational diseases of professional m...
The Organism
In this remarkable book by one of the great psychologists and neurologists of the early twentieth century, Kurt Goldstein presents a summation of his “holistic” theory of the human organism. In the course of his studies on brain-damaged soldiers during the First World War, Goldstein became aware of the failure of contemporary biology and medicine to genuinely understand both the impact of such injuries and the astonishing adjustments that patients made to them. He challenged reductivist approaches that dealt with “localized” symptoms, insisting instead that an organism be analyzed in terms of the totality of its behavior and interaction with its surrounding milieu. He was especially ...

Crossfire
The marriage of philosophy and fiction in the first third of Spain's twentieth century was a fertile one. It produced some truly notable offspring—novels that cross genre boundaries to find innovative forms, and treatises that fuse literature and philosophy in new ways. In her illuminating interdisciplinary study of Spanish fiction of the "Silver Age," Roberta Johnson places this important body of Spanish literature in context through a synthesis of social, literary, and philosophical history. Her examination of the work of Miguel de Unamuno, Pio Baroja, Azorin, Ramon Perez de Ayala, Juan Ramon Jimenez, Gabriel Miro, Pedro Salinas, Rosa Chacel, and Benjamin Jarnes brings to light philosoph...

Development-Induced Displacement and Resettlement
Every year millions of people are displaced from their homes, livelihoods and communities due to land-based development projects. There is no limit to what can be called a ‘development project’. They can range from small-scale infrastructure or mining projects to mega hydropower plants; can be public or private, well-planned or rushed into. Knowledge of development-induced displacement and resettlement (DIDR) remains limited even after decades of experience and research. Many questions are yet unanswered: What is "success" in resettlement? Is development without displacement possible or can resettlement be developmental? Is there a global safeguard policy or do we need an international r...

Estudios jurídicos en homenaje al profesor don José María Castán Vázquez
Bien es sabido que “cuando dejemos este mundo, no podremos llevarnos nada que hayamos recibido; solo lo que hayamos dado” (San Francisco de Asís). Este libro da buena cuenta de lo mucho que José María Castán dio. La rica y atractiva respuesta que tantos amigos han ofrecido a una propuesta de modesto homenaje así lo pone de manifiesto. Toda su vida la dedicó José María Castán al estudio del Derecho y, durante treinta años, a enseñarlo en su Universidad Pontificia Comillas, en ICADE. Numerosas publicaciones y conferencias mostraron que su inquietud jurídica no se detuvo en su querido Derecho de Familia, ni siquiera, en el Derecho civil. Por esta razón, especialistas de distintos ámbitos del Derecho (administrativo, constitucional, mercantil, penal, procesal, Historia del Derecho o Teoría del Derecho) que compartimos, como profesores o como alumnos, su labor universitaria, hemos querido ofrecer a través de este libro un merecido reconocimiento. José María, maestro de muchos y amigo de todos, gracias por todo lo que nos has dado.
