Effects of Opera Music from Brain to Body
This book explores the connection between melodrama and medicine from multiple perspectives. Neuroscientists study the relationship between opera and brain functioning in the light of new findings in the fields of neurophysiology, neuroimaging, cognitive science and neuro-musicology; clinicians investigate the therapeutic potential of music, especially in the field of treatment and rehabilitation of individuals with neurodegenerative diseases; medical historians analyse the representation of diseases and those who cure diseases within operas; occupational doctors report descriptions of diseases that affect workers in the opera world and particularly focus on psychiatric and psychological alt...

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 ...

L'industria delle Medicine
L’Industria delle Medicine racconta con numerosi ed interessanti dettagli, la nascita, lo sviluppo ormai bisecolare, e le più recenti trasformazioni del mondo industriale del farmaco. Le carrellate storiche, rivolte al trascorrere del tempo ed ai principali eventi farmaceutico-industriali che caratterizzano a livello mondiale le diverse epoche, si alternano con discese verticali nelle storie delle singole aziende, con i loro prodotti ed i loro personaggi di maggior spicco. La trattazione segue un doppio binario: da un lato quello meramente cronologico dal ‘7 ai giorni nostri dall’altro per ciascun periodo storico l’Autore espone la storia dell’industria farmaceutica nelle diverse nazioni soffermandosi sulle peculiarità di ciascun paese in un continuo intrecciarsi di scoperte scientifiche, nascita di realtà locali, per poi nell’ultima parte del testo confluire in un unico racconto sulle fusioni e acquisizioni che hanno caratterizzato la storia recente.
Music, Neurology, and Neuroscience: Historical Connections and Perspectives
Music, Neurology, and Neuroscience: Historical Connections and Perspectives provides a broad and comprehensive discussion of history and new discoveries regarding music and the brain, presenting a multidisciplinary overview on music processing, its effects on brain plasticity, and the healing power of music in neurological and psychiatric disorders. In this context, the disorders that plagued famous musicians and how they affected both performance and composition are critically discussed, as is music as medicine and its potential health hazard. Additional topics, including the way music fits into early conceptions of localization of function in the brain, its cultural roots in evolution, and...
