This book was released on 2005-03-24 with total page 864 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of Stress and the Brain focuses on the impact of stressful events on the functioning of the central nervous system; how stress affects molecular and cellular processes in the brain, and in turn, how these brain processes determine our perception of and reactivity to, stressful challenges - acutely and in the long-run. Written for a broad scientific audience, the Handbook comprehensively reviews key principles and facts to provide a clear overview of the interdisciplinary field of stress. The work aims to bring together the disciplines of neurobiology, physiology, immunology, psychology and psychiatry, to provide a reference source for both the non-clinical and clinical expert, as well as serving as an introductory text for novices in this field of scientific inquiry. Part 1 addresses basic aspects of the neurobiology of the stress response including the involvement of neuropeptide, neuroendocrine and neurotransmitter systems and its corollaries regarding gene expression and behavioural processes such as cognition, motivation and emotionality. * Provides an overview of recent advances made in stress research * Includes timely discussion of stress and its effect on the immune system * Presents novel treatment strategies targeting brain processes involved in stress processing and coping mechanisms

Using a simple method, The End of Stress shows you how to change your brain’s default reaction from stress, anxiety, and depression to calm, creativity, and happiness. Have you been struggling with your levels of stress, unable to escape it completely? It’s not your fault. We were brought up in a fear-based, shame-based culture that wired our brains’ default systems to stress and fear—triggering all sorts of stress reactions that sabotage happiness, compromise health, and block our potential to flourish. If ignored too long, long-term stress can become deadly, resulting in a build-up of toxic stress hormones in your body, shrinking your brain mass and lowering optimum brain function, depressing your emotional set point, and shortening your lifespan. There’s now proof that the deadly long-term effects of stress are reversable and The End of Stress provides four steps to better achieve success and happiness. This specific shift literally rewires the brain to deliver the full measure of intelligence, creativity, and emotional balance that enables you to thrive instead of struggle. The End of Stress: Four Steps to Rewire Your Brain guides you through an evidence-based process that achieves this powerful shift. This book is designed as a workshop-in-a-book, supported by a website of tools, audio files, and materials that can help create a new and healthier you!

Book excerpt: Explores how the explosion of neuroscience-based evidence in recent years has led to a fundamental change in how forensic psychology can inform working with criminal populations. This book communicates knowledge and research findings in the neurobiological field to those who work with offenders and those who design policy for offender rehabilitation and criminal justice systems, so that practice and policy can be neurobiologically informed, and research can be enhanced. Starting with an introduction to the subject of neuroscience and forensic settings, The Wiley Blackwell Handbook of Forensic Neuroscience then offers in-depth and enlightening coverage of the neurobiology of sex and sexual attraction, aggressive behavior, and emotion regulation; the neurobiological bases to risk factors for offending such as genetics, developmental, alcohol and drugs, and mental disorders; and the neurobiology of offending, including psychopathy, antisocial personality disorders, and violent and sexual offending. The book also covers rehabilitation techniques such as brain scanning, brain-based therapy for adolescents, and compassion-focused therapy. The book itself: Covers a wide array of neuroscience research Chapters by renowned neuroscientists and criminal justice experts Topics covered include the neurobiology of aggressive behavior, the neuroscience of deception, genetic contributions to psychopathy, and neuroimaging-guided treatment Offers conclusions for practitioners and future directions for the field. The Handbook of Forensic Neuroscience is a welcome book for all researchers, practitioners, and postgraduate students involved with forensic psychology, neuroscience, law, and criminology.
