Isbn: 9781108478632 - the integrative action of the autonomic nervous system: neurobiology of homeostasis (4 Ergebnisse)

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Almost all bodily functions are dependent on activity of the autonomic nervous system from the cardiovascular system, the gastrointestinal tract, the evacuative and sexual organs, to the regulation of temperature, metabolism and tissue defence. Balanced functioning of each aspect of this system is an important basis of our life and well-being. In this long-awaited second edition, the author, a leading figure in this field, provides an up-to-date and detailed description of the cellular and integrative organization of the autonomic nervous system, covering both peripheral and central aspects. The book exposes modern neurobiological concepts that allow us to understand why this system normally runs so smoothly and why its deterioration has such disastrous consequences. This broad overview will appeal to researchers and advanced undergraduate students of the various biological and medical sciences studying how the autonomic nervous system works and to clinicians and physical therapists whose practice involves systems dependent on autonomic functions. This long-awaited second edition has been systematically revised and updated. Aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as researchers, the book unravels the complex mechanisms that determine how the brain and peripheral nervous system regulate bodily functions, and how this normal functioning can change with disease or injury.
