Brain Literacy for Educators and Psychologists
Although educators are expected to bring about functional changes in the brain--the organ of human learning--they are given no formal training in the structure, function or development of the brain in formal or atypically developing children as part of their education. This book is organized around three conceptual themes: First, the interplay between nature (genetics) and nurture (experience and environment) is emphasized. Second, the functional systems of the brain are explained in terms of how they lead to reading, writing and mathematics and the design of instruction. Thirdly, research is presented, not as a finished product, but as a step forward within the field of educational neuropsychology. The book differs from neuropsychology and neuroscience books in that it is aimed at practitioners, focuses on high incidence neuropsychological conditions seen in the classroom, and is the only book that integrates both brain research with the practice of effective literacy, and mathematics instruction of the general and special education school-aged populations.
Writing
This book captures the diversity and richness of writing as it relates to different forms of abilities, skills, competencies, and expertise. It is an invaluable resource for researchers interested in language and cognition, and also educators and clinicians.
Past, Present, and Future Contributions of Cognitive Writing Research to Cognitive Psychology
This volume tells the story of research on the cognitive processes of writing--from the perspectives of the early pioneers, the contemporary contributors, and visions of the future for the field. It includes the very latest in findings from neuroscience and experimental cognitive psychology, and provides the most comprehensive current overview on this topic.
Myelination and Demyelination
In June 1987, neurobiologists, immunologists, molecular biologists, virologists and neurologists from several countries met in Vancouver to discuss recent advances of relevance to multiple sclerosis. The symposium was a part of the 22nd Canadian Congress of Neurological Sciences meeting and was sponsored by funds from the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada and the Medical Research Council of Canada. The presentations covered five major topics: basic neurobiology, molecular biology, the role of viruses in demyelination, immune function and dysfunction in multiple sclerosis, and clinical magnetic resonance imaging studies. It was heartening to note that scientists from several different disc...
Be Gentle
Be Gentle By: Donald Gallehr Be Gentle teaches simple lessons that will hopefully inspire the reader to bring peace to this world. Developed through years of meditation, Gallehr has found a way for people to live more gently on this earth and to coexist with others peacefully.
Autism Spectrum Disorders
Autism is an emerging area of basic and clinical research, and has only recently been recognized as a major topic in biomedical research. Approximately 1 in 150 children are diagnosed as autistic, so it is also an intense growth area in behavioral and educational treatments. Financial resources have begun to be raised for more comprehensive research and an increasing number of scientists are becoming involved in autism research. In many respects, autism has become a model for conducting translational research on a psychiatric disorder. This text provides a comprehensive summary of all current knowledge related to the behavioral, experiential, and biomedical features of the autism spectrum di...
Sport Cyberpsychology
The new edition of Sport Cyberpsychology is the only textbook in this field that provides a detailed overview of theories, concepts and research findings specifically related to the discipline of sport cyberpsychology. Post-pandemic, this new edition explores the vast psychological impact technology has on athletes' thoughts, emotions and preparations for their sport, as well as the role technology plays in sport consulting, officiating and social interactions. It covers topics that include performance-enhancing technologies, social media use by athletes and sport personnel (e.g., sport officials) and the role of technology in sport psychology consulting. Problematic behaviours athletes may ...
Quantum Love
Falling in love is a thrilling, transcendent experience . . . but what about staying in love? Once the intense excitement of a new relationship starts to fade, you may think your only options are to somehow recapture that early magic or settle for a less than fulfilling love life. Now love, sex, and relationship expert Laura Berman, Ph.D., taps the latest scientific and metaphysical research to offer an inspiring alternative: a higher level of love beckoning you to move forward, not backward. Using the essential truth we’ve learned from the study of quantum physics—the fact that at our molecular core, each of us is simply a vessel of energy—Dr. Berman explains how you can use what’s ...
Myelin
Myelin: Biology and Chemistry provides in-depth reviews and discussions regarding recent findings in the biology and chemistry of myelin. Topics are interdisciplinary and carry readers from the cellular level to that of the gene. Research in demyelinating diseases (naturally occurring and experimentally produced) is described and emphasizes autoimmune and virally induced mechanisms. Advances in molecular biology, such as those that provide details of the structures of the major myelin proteins, demonstrate the control of their synthesis, and explore the mutations within their genes that disrupt the process of myelination, are discussed in depth. Myelin: Biology and Chemistry will be an important addition to the libraries of molecular biologists, biochemists, cell biologists, physical chemists, immunologists, virologists, and pathologists involved in the study of myelin.
The Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) Book: An introduction to current research & developments
PEMF is one of the most exciting technologies in the history of wellness and longevity science. In this book, veteran PEMF technologist, Siddharth Agrawal provides a compelling narrative on how PEMF can be applied and reviews the PEMF research for a variety of conditions as well as sleep, sports performance and veterinarian applications. In this second edition of The PEMF book, Sid has added new chapters and updated some of the existing ones. This book also includes chapters on his favorite new emerging complementary technologies - molecular hydrogen and photobiomodulation.
