'The Orbitofrontal Cortex' explores a part of the brain that is
important in human emotion, pleasure, decision-making, valuation,
and personality. In ten chapters the book describes: * The OFC's
connections; * Its neuron level neurophysiology which is essential
for understanding what information is represented in the
orbitofrontal cortex; * Functional neuroimaging of the
orbitofrontal cortex; * How it relates to the previous and
succeeding areas in brain processing; * The effects of damage to
the orbitofrontal cortex which provides important evidence about
its functions; * How the orbitofrontal cortex is involved in
psychiatric disorders including depression, bipolar disorder, and
autism; * How and what the orbitofrontal cortex computes; * Future
directions in understanding the functions of the orbitofrontal
cortex in health and disease. The book is unique in providing a
coherent multidisciplinary approach to understanding the functions
of one of the most interesting regions of the human brain, in both
health and in disease, including depression. The Orbitofrontal
Cortex will be valuable for those in the fields of neuroscience,
neurology, psychology, psychiatry, biology, animal behaviour,
economics, and philosophy, from the undergraduate level upwards.
