Respiratory Neurobiology
Respiratory Neurobiology: Physiology and Clinical Disorders, Part Two, Volume 189 is one of two volumes on the neurology of breathing. This volume focuses on pathologies attributable to abnormalities of the neural control of breathing, breathing problems that may occur in neurological diseases, and the neurological complications of respiratory diseases, while volume one focuses on the neurophysiology of breathing. Explores the assessment and treatment of neural disorders of breathing Identifies neural complications of respiratory diseases Includes SIDS, stroke, Parkinson's, dementia, epilepsy, muscular dystrophy, and more
Frontiers in Modeling and Control of Breathing
The field of neural control of breathing has advanced rapidly in the past two decades, with the emergence of many new and promising research directions of increasing sophistication. The complexity and diversity of the current methodologies signify its remarkable vivacity, albeit at the price of much confusion. Captured in this book are the broad and intricate nature of the field and its multifaceted frontiers, including aspects of genetics, cell and molecular biology, comparative biology, neurophysiology, neurochemistry, neuroanatomy, imaging, human physiology in health and disease, and influence of environmental factors. Major topics include chemosensitivity, respiratory sensation, respiratory neurons, rhythmogenesis, plasticity, development, chemoreflex and exercise, respiratory instability and variability with behavioral and sleep states, etc., which are systematically laid out in the book for easy referencing.
Neurobiology of Motor Control
A multi-disciplinary look at the current state of knowledge regarding motor control and movement—from molecular biology to robotics The last two decades have seen a dramatic increase in the number of sophisticated tools and methodologies for exploring motor control and movement. Multi-unit recordings, molecular neurogenetics, computer simulation, and new scientific approaches for studying how muscles and body anatomy transform motor neuron activity into movement have helped revolutionize the field. Neurobiology of Motor Control brings together contributions from an interdisciplinary group of experts to provide a review of the current state of knowledge about the initiation and execution of...
Contract on a Cop
Detective Bobby Marino is back with his elite squad of detectives. In this twisting thriller his team is involved with the DEA in a raid on a major heroin kingpin and the mob family that supplies his organization. Millions in drug monies are stolen during the raid and the drug kingpin seeks revenge. Cops, DEA agents, informants, drug dealers and users are all being viciously killed and Marino is next on the list. When his family comes under attack, he can only trust his closest friends for help. Arrested and disgraced for trying to protect himself, he has no choice but to fight back. And when the mob gets after him, he turns to one of their own, an old friend since childhood, who tries to help him out but only succeeds in drawing more fuel to the fire. Marino finds himself a hunted man with a bounty on his head. It's a move that the bad guys just don't make against a cop, unless they've been pushed to the edge, and that's just what Marino did. Now there's a contract on a cop.
