Book Description
NeuroAnalysis investigates using the neural network and neural computation models to bridge the divide between psychology, psychoanalysis, and neuroscience when diagnosing mental health disorders and prescribing treatment. Avi Peled builds on Freud's early attempts to explain the neural basis of mental health by introducing neural computation as a bridging science to explain psychiatric disorders. Peled describes the brain as a complex system of interconnected units and goes on to suggest that conscious experience, feelings, and mood are emergent properties arising from these complex organisations. This model describes mental health disorders in terms of perturbation to the optimal brain organisation, and demonstrates how particular disorders can be identified through a specific breakdown pattern of the brain’s organisation. This fresh approach to the diagnosis of psychiatric disorders will interest students, professors, and researchers of psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and their related fields.

Book Description
Young presents a polemical espousal of transhumanist philosophy and a trenchant attack on its critics, the "Bio-Luddites." The author calls for a rejection of premodern superstition and postmodern nihilism in favor of a renewed belief in human progress through scientific rationality.

Book Description
The title of this manuscript is ambitious, especially in 2012 when mental disorders are neither explained nor cured (in the sense of permanently eliminating all clinical manifestations). Knowledge about the workings of the brain is speedily accumulating and the relevance of the new knowledge to understanding mental disorders is already becoming evident. However this knowledge is not reaching psychiatrists for a variety of reasons, mainly education. Even though neuroscience is penetrating the curriculum of psychiatry, some critically relevant findings about the brain as a complex, non-linear dynamic system are not. An intellectual exercise of combining knowledge about the workings of the brain as a physical complex and dynamic system, with knowledge about clinical manifestations of mental disorders offers an exciting new outlook that, in my mind, will revolutionize psychiatry. It will be such a colossal revolution that psychiatry, psychology and neurology will be unified into one brain-related discipline which I would call "NeuroAnalysis" where "Neuro" relates to neurology and the adjoined term of "analysis" relates to systems, diagnosis and treatment.If one wants to bring together knowledge from complex systems, the brain, physics and psychiatry this should be done in the context of redefining mental disorders as brain disorders. This will put psychiatry in line with the rest of medicine, but more importantly it will offer a conceptual framework to direct interventions that will become effective therapies for curing mental disorders.This manuscript will formulate a brain-related literature-based comprehensive diagnostic taxonomy for psychiatry and call it "NeuroAnalysis" I will demonstrate how it can be readily applicable to the clinical bed-side work of the clinician, and I will describe how to validate it. Finally I will discuss how future therapies based on NeuroAnalysis will be effective. This manuscript is intended for a wide spectrum of readers, I want it to be appealing to laypersons in order to attract them to participate in this field (e.g., students and pre-students wanting to choose psychiatry as their field of training), but it must also be directly relevant to the expert professional and researcher whose task is to validate it, using the testable predictions as research designs of practical concrete research protocols. Thus the layperson will find putative answers for many perplexing questions that often rise concerning mental disorders. The professional will find endless testable predictions, enough for a century of scientific psychiatric research.

Book Description
This volume illustrates to the public, and legal experts, the basic principles of the field of neuroscience, that commonly goes under the name of Neurolaw. First, it illustrates the relationship between neuroscience, natural sciences and social sciences. Furthermore, it highlights numerous problems concerning the fundamental philosophical concepts used by Neurolaw and evaluates the validity of the method and the limits of a neuroscientific approach to the problems of law and justice.The volume explores the possibility of application of these concepts on the fundamentals of the general theory of law and legal dogmatics. It also examines the main problems of Neurolaw in relation to public, private, criminal and procedural law. In conclusion, the book follows a systematic method that makes it an thorough manual for the introduction to Neurolaw.

Book Description
Can psychoanalysis offer a new computer model? Can computer designers help psychoanalysts to understand their theory better?In contemporary publications human psyche is often related to neural networks. Why? The wiring in computers can also be related to application software. But does this really make sense? Artificial Intelligence has tried to implement functions of human psyche. The reached achievements are remarkable; however, the goal to get a functional model of the mental apparatus was not reached. Was the selected direction incorrect?The editors are convinced: yes, and they try to give answers here. If one accepts that the brain is an information processing system, then one also has to accept that computer theories can be applied to the brain’s functions, the human mental apparatus. The contributors of this book - Solms, Panksepp, Sloman and many others who are all experts in computer design, psychoanalysis and neurology are united in one goal: finding synergy in their interdisciplinary fields.

Book Description
In this ground-breaking book, Dr. Harold Levinson, a renowned psychiatrist and clinical researcher, provides his long-awaited follow-up work about truly understanding and successfully treating children and adults with many and diverse dyslexia-related disorders such as those found on the cover. This fascinating, life-changing title is primarily about helping children who suffer from varied combinations and severities of previously unexplained inner-ear-determined symptoms resulting in difficulties with: reading, writing, spelling, math, memory, speech, sense of direction and time grammar, concentration/activity-level, balance and coordination headaches, nausea, dizziness, ringing ears, and motion-sickness frustration levels and feeling dumb, ugly, klutzy, phobic, and depressed impulsivity, cutting class, dropping out of school, and substance abuse bullying and being bullied as well as anger and social interactions later becoming emotionally traumatized and scarred dysfunctional adults Feeling Smarter and Smarter is thus also about and for the millions of frus-trated and failing adults who are often overwhelmed by similar and even more complicated symptoms—as well as for their dedicated healers. Having laid the initial foundations for his many current insights in an earlier bestseller, Smart But Feeling Dumb, Dr. Levinson now presents a compelling range of enlightening new cases and data as well as a large number of highly original discoveries—such as his challenging illumination that all dyslexia-related manifestations are primarily inner-ear or cerebellar-vestibular—not cerebrally—determined and so do not impair IQ, and an “ingeniously simple” explanatory theory of symptom formation. Most important, all the dyslexia/inner-ear based impairments and their symptoms were discovered by Dr. Levinson to respond rapidly and often “mi-raculously” in 75 to 85 percent of cases when treated with simple and safe inner-ear enhancing medications—thus enabling bright but dumb-feeling children and adults to feel... smarter and smarter.
