Jasper's Basic Mechanisms of the Epilepsies
Jasper's Basic Mechanisms, Fourth Edition, is the newest most ambitious and now clinically relevant publishing project to build on the four-decade legacy of the Jasper's series. In keeping with the original goal of searching for "a better understanding of the epilepsies and rational methods of prevention and treatment.", the book represents an encyclopedic compendium neurobiological mechanisms of seizures, epileptogenesis, epilepsy genetics and comordid conditions. Of practical importance to the clinician, and new to this edition are disease mechanisms of genetic epilepsies and therapeutic approaches, ranging from novel antiepileptic drug targets to cell and gene therapies.
A Mental Ethnography: Conclusions from Research in LSD
There has recently been a renewed interest in both casual use of psychedelics as well as experimental use and attempts to discover therapeutic value. There is an effort to recapture the achievements and failures of past work to guide present use. This book is based around material derived from unpublished scientific research from Dr. Robert Mogar’s laboratory and built upon by forty years of field research by the author. The author Niccolo Caldararo participated in a number of studies of perception, including sensory deprivation and psychotropic drugs, some of recent manufacture or discovery and some of primitive or traditional societies. He places this analysis of the physiological aspects of hallucinations, delusions, visions and dreamsn context through an , as well as cross cultural data on dreams, dreaming and drug use and the social value of hallucinations, dreams and visions. The book reviews ethnographic literature in this area and contributes to a comprehensive evaluation of past work done in this area.
The Cheese Valleys -
"The Cheese Valleys: The Birthplace of the Orobic Cheese-making Tradition" focuses on the Traditional and Creative Knowledge of the Orobic Valleys (Bergamo, Lecco e Sondrio), who have demonstrated, for more than a thousand years of evolution, that cheese is not a mere mixture of ingredients (milk, rennet and salt) or a set of aromas and flavors. Cheese making is instead an anthropological and cultural heritage, made of people, expertise and traditional practices that includes the continuous activity of men and animals which have marked the time and the lives of the peoples of the Orobic Valleys, years after years.Still today the activity of the Knowledge Keepers that live in the Orobic Valleys is a splendid example of circular and sustainable economy, which favors the conservation of a special natural habitat by maintaining the animal husbandry practices, the mountain pastures and their connected ecosystems.
Neuronal mechanisms of epileptogenesis
Several types of brain injuries are causes of acquired temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). The seizure-free "latent period" that often follows the brain injury is of unknown mechanistic significance but is commonly considered as the "epileptogenic" period characterized by gradual pathogenic processes leading to the onset of clinically detectable epilepsy. Acute convulsive status epilepticus (SE) is often associated with an adverse developmental outcome characterized by learning disabilities related to the cumulative effects of seizures and development of TLE. The symptomatic manifestations of TLE appear only after a widespread irreversible damage of entorhinal cortex, and hippocampus, the brain ar...
