"We've often heard that weight problems are caused by defective genes, and now we're beginning to assemble evidence that shows how important genes in the pituitary gland are to maintaining optimal weight," said Childs, who also is a professor and chair of the Department of
Neurobiology & Developmental Sciences in the UAMS College of Medicine.
Among the chapter topics are the relevance of sleep
neurobiology for cognitive neuroscience and anesthesiology, the
neurobiology of consciousness, memory formation during general anesthesia, monitoring anesthetic depth, and three chapters on the psychological, philosophical, and medicolegal consequences of intraoperative awareness.
Daniel Lord Smail proposes that if history is to reach back before the advent of written records, and if it is to take account of both biological and cultural evolution as well as the burgeoning
neurobiology of our time, then its evidential foundations must be reformulated.
