Human Brain Function
This updated second edition provides the state of the art perspective of the theory, practice and application of modern non-invasive imaging methods employed in exploring the structural and functional architecture of the normal and diseased human brain. Like the successful first edition, it is written by members of the Functional Imaging Laboratory - the Wellcome Trust funded London lab that has contributed much to the development of brain imaging methods and their application in the last decade. This book should excite and intrigue anyone interested in the new facts about the brain gained from neuroimaging and also those who wish to participate in this area of brain science. * Represents an almost entirely new book from 1st edition, covering the rapid advances in methods and in understanding of how human brains are organized * Reviews major advances in cognition, perception, emotion and action * Introduces novel experimental designs and analytical techniques made possible with fMRI, including event-related designs and non-linear analysis
Brain Mapping: The Disorders
Brain Mapping: The Disorders is the first comprehensive text to describe the uses of the latest brain mapping technologies in the evaluation of patients with neurological, neurosurgical and psychiatric disorders. With contributions from the leading figures in the field, this heavily illustrated text is organized by disorders of brain systems, with specific examples of how one should use current neuroimaging techniques to evaluate patients with specific cerebral disorders. Comprehensive in scope, the text discusses patient evaluations using the wide range of modern magnetic resonance imaging techniques, positron emission tomography, single photon emission computed tomography, optical intrinsi...
Imaging Neuroscience
This issue forms part of a series of reviews on selected health topics in fields where significant developments are occurring. It should prove a useful reference source and allows those working in other specialities and younger clinicians and scientists to update their knowledge in important and well-defined subject areas.

Imaging Selective Attention in the Human Brain
Presenting an overview of recent advances in the study of human selective attention with neurobiological measures, a review of the field highlighting new data from fMRI, PET, MEG and ERP methods. Selective attention was a central topic at the dawn of cognitive psychology, and it has proved equally central in the development of cognitive neuroscience. The recent advent of functional imaging, using PET, fMRI and more recently event-related fMRI, has transformed the study of selective attention. Other neurobiological measures, such as MEG and ERP recordings, have also played a critical role in human research, as has single-cell recording in related animal work. Together, these various neurobiological measures have shed new light on how selective attention operates. They have demonstrated striking modulations of sensory processing, and provided new information on the control processes that may be responsible for such modulation. Given all this recent progress across a number of different neurobiological approaches the time has come to assess just how far the field has advanced; to identify the emerging consensus; and to outline the outstanding issues for future research.

Neuroimaging II
The focus of Volume I of the Handbook of Human Brain Function was on basic scientific principles of brain imaging as it relates to the study of human brain function. Once the scientific bases for a particular discipline are established, follow. Such is the status of brain imaging in the study of clinical applications human brain function. It is of interest to note that the 1952 Nobel Prize for Physics was awarded to Felix Bloch and Edward Purcell, who discovered that nuclei precessing in the radiofrequency range could emit a radiofrquency signal detected by a radio receiver. Their findings initiated a series of very basic re search studies on the characteristics of nuclear magnetic resonance...

The Science of Managing Our Digital Stuff
Why we organize our personal digital data the way we do and how design of new PIM systems can help us manage our information more efficiently. Each of us has an ever-growing collection of personal digital data: documents, photographs, PowerPoint presentations, videos, music, emails and texts sent and received. To access any of this, we have to find it. The ease (or difficulty) of finding something depends on how we organize our digital stuff. In this book, personal information management (PIM) experts Ofer Bergman and Steve Whittaker explain why we organize our personal digital data the way we do and how the design of new PIM systems can help us manage our collections more efficiently. Bergm...
