Re: Brain Arousal, Alertness, Attention, and ADHD
Molecular and Biophysical Mechanisms of Arousal, Alertness and
Attention
Brain mechanisms for arousal, alertness, and attention underlie all
cognitive functions and all emotional expression. This volume
discusses the neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and functional genomics
of these states, and the medical consequences of their damage in
human patients -- e.g. vegetative states, attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder, autism, age-related dementias,
mood disorders and sleep disorders. The volume also discusses
problems related to vigilance, environmental toxins, fatigue states,
circadian rhythms, and sleep/wake physiology, and presents and
discusses relevant research techniques, with an emphasis on molecular
genetics and on human and animal behavior.
