The Prefrontal Cortex, Fifth Edition, provides users with a thoroughly updated version of this comprehensive work that has historically served as the classic reference on this part of the brain.The book offers a unifying, interdisciplinary perspective that is lacking in other volumes written about the frontal lobes, and is, once again, written by the award-winning author who discovered "memory cells," the physiological substrate of working memory.The fifth edition constitutes a comprehensive update, including all the major advances made on the physiology and cognitive neuroscience of the region since publication in 2008.All chapters have been fully revised, and the overview of prefrontal functions now interprets experimental data within the theoretical framework of the new paradigm of cortical structure and dynamics (the Cognit Paradigm), addressing the accompanying social, economic, and cultural implications.Provides a distinctly interdisciplinary view of the prefrontal cortex, covering all major methodologies, from comparative anatomy to modern imagingUnique analysis and synthesis of a large body of basic and clinical data on the subject (more than 2000 references)Written by an award-winning author who discovered "memory cells," the physiological substrate of working memorySynthesizes evidence that the prefrontal cortex constitutes a complex pre-adaptive systemIncorporates emerging study of the role of the frontal lobes in social, economic, and cultural adaptation

Recenzijas

"With this edition, Dr. Fuster continues to propagate earlier insights from previous decades, while layering on new developments from physiology, imaging, and causal manipulation studies of the present day...The Prefrontal Cortex has something for everyone." --World Neurosurgery

"This update of the epitome of classic books is a marvelous addition to the scientific literature and obligatory reading for all neuroscientists. Score: 93 - 4 Stars" --Doody's

"Once again, Dr. Fuster, the world's pre-eminent expert on the frontal lobes, has delivered an instant classic that should be read by everyone interested in understanding the link between brain and behavior." --Mark D'Esposito, Professor of Neuroscience and Psychology, Director, Henry H. Wheeler Jr. Brain Imaging Center, University of California, Berkeley, USA

"A classic that has graced the library of many of us since its first edition appeared 28 years ago now returns, splendidly updated. As a result this book will continue to be the go-to reference on the prefrontal cortex as we strive to understand more fully its critical role in brain function." --Marcus E. Raichle, Professor of Radiology and Neurology, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, USA

"The Prefrontal Cortex has something for everyone. Generations of scientists have been inspired by Joaqu“n Fusters original research and his synthetic compilations. Clinicians can appreciate the relevance of his work to neurologic conditions and neurosurgical interventions. Lay readers interested in the marvels of the human brain get a glimpse of the profound complexity of its structure. Dr. Fuster answers many questions but asks even more, ever pointing us in the direction of further illumination." - Sameer A. Sheth, M.D., Ph.D., Department of Neurosurgery, Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY, USA
