Augmentation of Brain Function: Facts, Fiction and Controversy
The Volume II is entitled “Neurostimulation and pharmacological approaches”. This volume describes augmentation approaches, where improvements in brain functions are achieved by modulation of brain circuits with electrical or optical stimulation, or pharmacological agents. Activation of brain circuits with electrical currents is a conventional approach that includes such methods as (i) intracortical microstimulation (ICMS), (ii) transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), and (iii) transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). tDCS and TMS are often regarded as noninvasive methods. Yet, they may induce long-lasting plastic changes in the brain. This is why some authors consider the term ...

The volume begins with reviews of key theories and methods in understanding young people within their social networked contexts of generosity, networks, identity, and ethnic heritage. The second section includes chapters attending to education and work as contexts for transitions to adulthood, counseling, meaning, and aesthetics from high school to college and into workp...
Extreme Religious Behaviours
Certain religious behaviours clearly reduce biological fitness. These behaviours include celibacy along with various forms of asceticism, and rituals that harm the performer. Such behaviours are found in widely different cultures. How is this possible? This book shows that these behaviours (as is religion in general) are by-products of features of the human mind whose evolutionary fitness is beyond doubt and explores those features. Which are those features? This book proposes a twofold answer. It draws attention to the layered nature of human consciousness, in which different manners of experience are superimposed on each other. This goes a long way toward accounting for the universal relig...
Recent Advances in the Study of Dyslexia
Dyslexia is biological in origin, but environmental factors also play a role. It affects people differently, but typical difficulties include reading, writing, and spelling, limited working memory capacity, and difficulties with organization, sequencing, and concentration. Early identification is crucial so that learners can receive the support that they need. This book explores contemporary perspectives on dyslexia. It starts by outlining approaches to support dyslexic students drawn from the application of cognitive science. It moves on to consider treatments, the role of technology, and approaches for working with teaching assistants.
