Neurocardiology The Emerging Field Of Brain Heart Interactions

The past decade has witnessed dramatic changes in the overlapping space between cardiovascular care and brain health and science. Treatment of high blood pressure has been demonstrated to reduce cognitive impairment and dementia. Subclinical cardiac disorders, including atrial fibrillation, atrial cardiopathy, and patent foramen ovale, are increasingly recognized as modifiable risk factors and causes of stroke; related treatments, such as left atrial exclusion and PFO closure, have become standard of care. Techniques developed originally in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction 30 or more years ago have now become evidence-based standard of care for patients with acute ischemic stroke. Neurocardiology: The Emerging Field of Brain/Heart Interactions addresses important questions and directions for research that lie at the intersection of cardiovascular care and brain science, and provides clinicians with guidance for the care of patients with neurological and cardiovascular disorders, including stroke, dementia, and management of cardiac causes of these conditions.

New ideas about intrinsic and extrinsic cardiac intrathoracic neurons, the role of spinal cord and medullary and higher center neurons are presented. The final chapters focus on the role that autonomic neurons play in the maintenance of cardiac function in the conscious state as well as in two major clinical conditions, dysrythimias and heart failure.

For hundreds of years the Western world has believed that humans--indeed all living things--consist of more than pure biology. Not mere physical bodies, humans possess something else that helps to define them. In this collection of new essays scientists, psychologists, theoretical physicists and other experts in the mind-body connection explore the nature of consciousness and its future as a new paradigm in science. With contributions covering near death experiences, the concept of "free will," conscious spacetime, DNA consciousness, the role of consciousness in the evolution of life, quantum theory and the non-local universe, the scientific basis of love, and the principles and applications of self-hypnosis, this volume clarifies the meaning of consciousness and establishes a model for further exploration into a burgeoning realm of scientific study.

Gratitude, like other positive emotions, has inspired many theological and philosophical writings, but it has inspired very little vigorous, empirical research. In an effort to remedy this oversight, this volume brings together prominent scientists from various disciplines to examine what has become known as the most-neglected emotion. The volume begins with the historical, philosophical, and theoretical foundations of gratitude, then presents the current research perspectives from social, personality, and developmental psychology, as well as from primatology, anthropology, and biology. The volume also includes a comprehensive, annotated bibliography of research on gratitude. This work contributes a great deal to the growing positive psychology initiative and to the scientific investigation of positive human emotions. It will be an invaluable resource for researchers and students in social, personality, and developmental, clinical, and health psychology, as well as to sociologists and cultural anthropologists.
