Law Gender Identity and the Brain Exploring Brain-Sex Theories in Judicial Decisions on Trans and Intersex Minors

Law Gender Identity and the Brain Exploring Brain-Sex Theories in Judicial Decisions on Trans and Intersex Minors

This book challenges law’s reliance on neurology’s brain-sex binary. The brain has become the latest candidate in a historical search for a reliable and fixed biological marker of ‘true sex’ that has permeated every aspect of Western culture including law. As definitions of the sexed and gendered body have become ever more contentious the development and dissemination of brain-sex theories have come to dominate popular understanding of LGBTI+ identities. But this book argues the brain is no more helpful than earlier biological measures in ensuring just outcomes. Examining how law determines and differentiates ‘male’ and ‘female’ in two contested areas of sexed identity –through a discussion of Australian cases authorising medical interventions to alter the embodied sex characteristics of transgender minors and intersex minors –the book demonstrates an incoherence in the legal understanding of gender identity development. As the brain too fails as a convincing biological anchor for the binary sex categories of male and female law must it is argued retreat from its aspiration to create define and regulate artificially bounded sex categories of male and female. This book will be of great interest to scholars and students in a range of disciplines who are working at the intersection of law gender and sexuality. | Law Gender Identity and the Brain Exploring Brain-Sex Theories in Judicial Decisions on Trans and Intersex Minors

Physiological Consequences of Brain Insulin Action

Physiological Consequences of Brain Insulin Action

The brain is crucial for the regulation of whole-body metabolism and behavior. The pancreas-derived hormone insulin modulates brain function and affects energy metabolism as well as cognition. This is partially achieved by modulating several types of brain cell populations including those relevant to satiety and reward. Importantly brains of Alzheimer´s disease patients exhibit a signature of brain insulin resistance with perturbed brain metabolism. This book will cover the basics of insulin signaling in the brain and will describe concepts of insulin resistance a feature of type 2 diabetes. Moreover insulin´s effect on cognitive function will be pointed out and the association between brain insulin resistance and neurodegenerative diseases discussed. Additionally potential behavioral and pharmacological concepts which can affect brain insulin signaling will be summarized. Key Features: Summarizes insulin and the closely related IGF-1 receptor signaling Depicts concepts of insulin resistance Highlights the importance of conserved brain insulin signaling for brain function metabolism and behavior Describes potential behavioral and pharmacological approaches to support brain insulin signaling | Physiological Consequences of Brain Insulin Action

Narrative Approaches to Brain Injury

Narrative Approaches to Brain Injury

This book brings together narrative approaches and brain injury rehabilitation in a manner that fosters an understanding of the natural fit between the two. We live our lives by narratives and stories and brain injury can affect those narratives at many levels with far-reaching effects. Understanding held narratives is as important as understanding the functional profile of the injury. This book explores ways to create a space for personal stories to emerge and change whilst balancing theory with practical application. Despite the emphasis of this book on the compatibility of narrative approaches to supporting people following brain injury it also illustrates the potential for contributing to significant change in the current narratives of brain injury. This book takes a philosophically different approach to many current neuro-rehabilitation topics and has the potential to make a big impact. It also challenges the reader to question their own position but does so in an engaging manner which makes it difficult to put down. | Narrative Approaches to Brain Injury

Brain–Computer Interfaces Handbook Technological and Theoretical Advances

Brain–Computer Interfaces Handbook Technological and Theoretical Advances

Brain–Computer Interfaces Handbook: Technological and Theoretical Advances provides a tutorial and an overview of the rich and multi-faceted world of Brain–Computer Interfaces (BCIs). The authors supply readers with a contemporary presentation of fundamentals theories and diverse applications of BCI creating a valuable resource for anyone involved with the improvement of people’s lives by replacing restoring improving supplementing or enhancing natural output from the central nervous system. It is a useful guide for readers interested in understanding how neural bases for cognitive and sensory functions such as seeing hearing and remembering relate to real-world technologies. More precisely this handbook details clinical therapeutic and human-computer interfaces applications of BCI and various aspects of human cognition and behavior such as perception affect and action. It overviews the different methods and techniques used in acquiring and pre-processing brain signals extracting features and classifying users’ mental states and intentions. Various theories models and empirical findings regarding the ways in which the human brain interfaces with external systems and environments using BCI are also explored. The handbook concludes by engaging ethical considerations open questions and challenges that continue to face brain–computer interface research. Features an in-depth look at the different methods and techniques used in acquiring and pre-processing brain signals extracting features and classifying the user's intention Covers various theories models and empirical findings regarding ways in which the human brain can interface with the systems or external environments Presents applications of BCI technology to understand various aspects of human cognition and behavior such as perception affect action and more Includes clinical trials and individual case studies of the experimental therapeutic applications of BCI Provides human factors and human-computer interface concerns in the design development and evaluation of BCIs Overall this handbook provides a synopsis of key technological and theoretical advances that are directly applicable to brain–computer interfacing technologies and can be readily understood and applied by individuals with no formal training in BCI research and development. | Brain–Computer Interfaces Handbook Technological and Theoretical Advances

Minimal Brain Dysfunction A Prospective Study

Minimal Brain Dysfunction A Prospective Study

The concept of Minimal Brain Dysfunction (a previous term for ADHD) has had a tumultuous and some would say checkered history. Originally published in 1981 this title was one of a series of volumes dealing with specific developmental problems in children whose mothers registered for prenatal care in the Collaborative Perinatal Project (NCPP) of the National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke (NINCDS). In this volume relationships between symptoms of minimal brain dysfunction and more than 300 prenatal and postnatal variables are examined in a cohort of nearly 30 000 7-year-old children. Despite greater understanding more recently diagnosis and treatment continue to cause controversy. This is an early investigation into the concept of MBD and its causes today it can be read in its historical context. | Minimal Brain Dysfunction A Prospective Study
