Download or read book Sleep and Aging written by Mark P. Mattson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-06-20 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sleep and Aging provides a unique and timely collection of review articles that cover the gamut of basic and clinical aspects of sleep and the abnormalities in sleep associated with aging and neurological disorders that occur during aging. From the evolutionary basis of sleep and its normal functions in processes such as learning and memory, to considerations of the roles of sleep abnormalities in neurological disorders such as depression, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, the chapters are written by experts in the field. Several chapters focus on signalling pathways involved in sleep regulation and abnormalities in sleep, including those activated by serotonin and BDNF. Basic and clinical research on insomnia, sleep apnea and other disorders of sleep, are covered thus providing students and scientists at all levels with a valuable source of information to advance their understanding of this important topic in aging, biology and medicine. The circuits in the brain involved in sleep regulation, their neurochemistry, how they are altered in disorders of sleep and current clinical treatments of various sleep disorders are reviewed. The important role of sleep disturbances in neurodegenerative disorders is described and research in this particular area is leading to a better understanding of the relationships between synaptic plasticity, neuronal degeneration and the clinical manifestations of disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and depression. This book is a must for scientists, as well as non-scientists, who are interested in the neurobiology of aging, sleep and neurodegenerative disorders.

Download or read book You Are What You Say written by Matthew Budd, M.D. and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2001-08-14 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why are you sick?" This question, posed in compassion by his grandmother Minnie after a childhood incident plunged him into illness, stayed with Dr. Matthew Budd throughout his lifetime in medicine. As a teacher and physician at Harvard for more than thirty years, he repeatedly asked his patients this question. He found, remarkably, that it often unlocked memories, secrets, anger, resentments, and fears that had played crucial roles in their illnesses. As he encouraged his patients to reflect on their lives and habitual behavior, they often shifted from being trapped in suffering to designing a life of wellness and profound personal change for themselves, no matter what their circumstances. Their experiences led Dr. Budd to develop the Ways to Wellness program, a nationally acclaimed workshop offered by numerous HMOs. In You Are What You Say, Dr. Budd presents the principles of this powerful, scientifically validated program that weaves ancient and modern insights into human behavior, neurophysiology, language, and spirituality. One of these fundamental principles is that you are what you say -- your words play a major role in determining, not just reflecting, your health and well-being. He explains how the body "learns" many of its reactions, consciously and unconsciously, through language. By following the principles in this book, you'll learn about the Ten Linguistic Viruses that damage health and how to combat the ravages of anger, perfectionism, depression, and anxiety by changing the script of what you say to yourself and to others.
Download or read book The Connecticut Baby written by Barry Oliver and published by AB Discovery. This book was released on 2022-07-28 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delilah Perkins has a family secret that is about to be discovered. At 109 years of age and nearing the end of her time, Delilah’s descendants number in the dozens. She lives in a home surrounded by photos of her memories spanning over a century. 21-year-old Zachary Perkins, one of Delilah's forty great-grandchildren, is just starting his life, only months away from his college graduation. While paying a final visit to the family matriarch, Zachary uncovers an old photograph that reveals Delilah's secret - a long-lost child, unknown to anyone in the Perkins family. What happens next is simply beyond Zachary's comprehension. He is transported back to Delilah's past where he experiences her family secret in the first person, incredibly as the very child same in the photograph. It is the Summer of 1922. The United States is crawling out of its post-war (World War I) recession. The 1920s are at last beginning to roar. Zachary discovers not only Delilah's long-lost child, but the long-lost life of a woman heretofore unknown to the Perkins family. He uncovers a lifetime buried on the distant side of a World War and the Great Depression; the lifetime of the beautiful and free-spirited Delilah Hayes at just 21 years, his own age in the present time. Over the course of the Summer, Zachary becomes more and more attached to Delilah's past. He falls in love with the coastal town of New Orchard, Connecticut, where Delilah got her start; along with the quirky people who inhabit his young great grandmother's life. Zachary begins to feel that Delilah’s past, in fact, belongs to himself; that this is the life he was supposed to live. Zachary questions whether he is even in the past at all. He asks the question: would it be possible to abandon his future to remain in the year 1922? If he makes that fateful decision, what will become of the future Zachary Perkins living in the year 2010? More immediately, if he stays, what will become of the two-year-old boy who was Delilah's first child?
