Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From R2-D2 and C-3PO to the Terminator, robots have added an exciting edge to movies for decades. But what about robots that are used in real life? Robots are programmed to perform tasks that are either too difficult or too dangerous for humans to do. They can also repeat an action hundreds of times exactly the same way each time. These robots have been extremely useful in manufacturing plants, automotive industries, and even our own homes. The future of robotics, however, lies with autonomous robots robots that can act independently. This rise of artificial intelligence leads to an unlimited number of possibilities in robotics"--Amazon.com.

Book excerpt: IntroductionIn this series of books - Creating Thinking Machines - we will go on a journey to trace the evolution of the mechanical machine of the last century and its transformation into the intelligent, logical and even rational machine of today. It has progressed so quickly that concerns have been raised in the US senate and the EU parliament due to concerns that these machines have become too intelligent, too smart, and most worrying of all too independent. These autonomous, intelligent machines are not some near future problem their evolution and development started many decades ago. And as with most technological marvels their development progressed slowly and then very quickly leaving us with no time to put in place legislation or a strategy to manage them. Consequently, there is not even a rough plan as to how to handle their proliferation through industry, how they will redefine work and take jobs across the entire spectrum. Most importantly to society as these thinking machines are insidiously permeating into all fabric of our world, will be our relationship with the technology, will we ultimately become dependent upon them. But what are they, how did they come about, and what are the technologies that they are based upon? Those are the question that this series of books hopes to shine some light upon. By doing so, we will explain how a conflation of technologies matured at an opportune time to accelerate the development of such intelligent entities, which now stand on the precipice of an industrial revolution. That such a potentially existential threat could be within not our lifetimes but a handful of years was laughable just five years ago. Yet it has arrived at such speed that it has left us unprepared and with uncertain futures. Throughout this series of books we will examine through in-depth introductions into the fields of robotics, data science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and neuroscience how to create a thinking machine. Further we will strive to reveal how incremental but hugely important advancements in electronics, algorithms, analytics and microbiology have fueled the transformation of the mechanical machines of the 90's into the thinking machines of 2017. For better or worse they will walk among us, we have created them and cannot un-invent them so you had better learn something about them.
Download or read book Surgery written by Jeffrey Norton and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-04-21 with total page 2419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much anticipated, the Second Edition of Surgery: Basic Science and Clinical Evidence features fully revised and updated information on the evidence-based practice of surgery, including significant new sections on trauma and critical care and the often challenging surgical care of unique populations, including elderly, pediatric, immunocompromised, and obese patients as well as timely new chapters on the pre- and post-operative care of the cardiac surgery patient, intestinal transplantation, surgical infections, the fundamentals of cancer genetics and proteomics. Also new to this edition are discussions of electrosurgical instruments, robotics, imaging modalities, and other emerging technologies influencing the modern practice of surgery. Clinically focused sections in gastrointestinal, vascular, cardiothoracic, transplant, and cancer surgery enable the surgeon to make decisions based upon the most relevant data in modern surgical practice. The text is enhanced by more than 1,000 illustrations and hundreds of the signature evidence-based tables that made the first edition of SURGERY an instant classic.

Download or read book Astrocytes in Patho Physiology of the Nervous System written by Vladimir Parpura and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-11 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Astrocytes were the original neuroglia that Ramón y Cajal visualized in 1913 using a gold sublimate stain. This stain targeted intermediate filaments that we now know consist mainly of glial fibrillary acidic protein, a protein used today as an astrocytic marker. Cajal described the morphological diversity of these cells with some ast- cytes surrounding neurons, while the others are intimately associated with vasculature. We start the book by discussing the heterogeneity of astrocytes using contemporary tools and by calling into question the assumption by classical neuroscience that neurons and glia are derived from distinct pools of progenitor cells. Astrocytes have long been neglected as active participants in intercellular communication and information processing in the central nervous system, in part due to their lack of electrical excitability. The follow up chapters review the “nuts and bolts” of ast- cytic physiology; astrocytes possess a diverse assortment of ion channels, neu- transmitter receptors, and transport mechanisms that enable the astrocytes to respond to many of the same signals that act on neurons. Since astrocytes can detect chemical transmitters that are released from neurons and can release their own extracellular signals there is an increasing awareness that they play physiological roles in regulating neuronal activity and synaptic transmission. In addition to these physiological roles, it is becoming increasingly recognized that astrocytes play critical roles during pathophysiological states of the nervous system; these states include gliomas, Alexander disease, and epilepsy to mention a few.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Neuronal Protein Synthesis written by Wayne S. Sossin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-15 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translational control in the nervous system is important. Many physiological processes in the nervous system depend on accurate control of the proteome that is mediated through protein synthetic mechanisms and thus, the nervous system is very sensitive to dysregulation of translational control. The Oxford Handbook of Neuronal Protein Synthesis reviews the mechanisms of translational control used by the nervous system, as well as how important nervous system functions, such as plasticity and homeostasis, depend on accurate translational control. The handbook extensively covers how dysregulation of protein synthesis can manifest itself in many distinct pathological processes including neurodevelopmental, neuropsychiatric, and neurodegenerative diseases. The handbook is comprehensive in its coverage of translational control mechanisms with particular focus on how these general control mechanisms are specifically utilized in the context of the cell biological constraints of the nervous system from both a mechanistic and systems perspective.
