Index N2 - This book covers recent advances in the understanding of brain struc ture, function and disorders based on the fundamental principles of phy sics. It covers a broad range of physical phenomena occurring in the b rain circuits for perception, cognition, emotion and action, representi ng the building blocks of the mind. It provides novel insights into th e devastating brain disorders of the mind such as schizophrenia, dement ia, autism, aging or addictions, as well as into the new devices for br ain repair. The book is aimed at basic researchers in the fields of neu roscience, physics, biophysics and clinicians in the fields of neurolog y, neurosurgery, psychology, psychiatry ER -
