Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation seeks to enable new and existing
practitioners to learn and follow established TMS protocols. The
individual chapters in this detailed volume describe methods for
single and multiple pulse TMS as well as methods for TMS coupled
with associated techniques, from electromyography to neuroimaging.
The collection promises to facilitate growth and exploration of
clinical and experimental TMS. As a volume in the popular
Neuromethods series, chapters include the kind of expert
implementation advice that encourages successful and reproducible
results. Authoritative and practical, Transcranial Magnetic
Stimulation will serve not only as a good methodological
introduction for those new to this growing field, but also as a
source of continual reference for experienced practitioners when
re-visiting older, exploring novel, or developing new concepts.

Recent research in the cognitive sciences gives us a new
perspective on the cognitive and sensory landscape. In The
Multisensory Museum: Cross-Disciplinary Perspectives on Touch,
Sound, Smell, Memory, and Space, museum expert Nina Levent and
Alvaro Pascual-Leone, professor of neurology at Harvard Medical
School bring together scholars and museum practitioners from around
the world to highlight new trends and untapped opportunities for
using such modalities as scent, sound, and touch in museums to
offer more immersive experiences and diverse sensory engagement for
visually- and otherwise-impaired patrons. Visitor studies describe
how different personal and group identities color our cultural
consumption and might serve as a compass on museum journeys.
Psychologists and educators look at the creation of memories
through different types of sensory engagement with objects, and how
these memories in turn affect our next cultural experience. An
anthropological perspective on the history of our multisensory
engagement with ritual and art objects, especially in cultures that
did not privilege sight over other senses, allows us a glimpse of
what museums might become in the future. Education researchers
discover museums as unique educational playgrounds that allow for a
variety of learning styles, active and passive exploration, and
participatory learning. Designers and architects suggest a
framework for thinking about design solutions for a museum
environment that invites an intuitive, multisensory and flexible
exploration, as well as minimizes physical hurdles. While attention
has been paid to accessibility for the physically-impaired since
passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, making buildings
accessible is only the first small step in elevating museums to be
centers of learning and culture for all members of their
communities. This landmark book will help all museums go much
further.
Cognitive neuroscience isĀ theĀ interdisciplinary study
of how cognitive and intellectual functions are processed and
represented within the brain, which is critical to building
understanding of core psychological and behavioural processes such
as learning, memory, behaviour, perception, and consciousness.
Understanding these processes not only offers relevant fundamental
insights into brain-behavioural relations, but may also lead to
actionable knowledge that can be applied in the clinical treatment
of patients with various brain-related disabilities. This Handbook
focusses on the foundational principles, methods, and underlying
systems in cognitive and systems neuroscience, as well as examining
cutting-edge methodological advances and innovations. Containing 34
original, state of the art contributions from leading experts in
the field, this Handbook is essential reading for researchers and
students of cognitive psychology, as well as scholars across the
fields of neuroscientific, behavioural and health sciences. Part 1:
Background Considerations Part 2: Neuroscientific Substrates and
Principles Part 3: Neuroanatomical Brain Systems Part 4: Neural
Dynamics and Processes Part 5: Sensory-Perceptual Systems and
Cognition Part 6: Methodological Advances
