Despite national and international commitments to Education for All, and the Millennium Development Goals to assure universal primary education by 2015, over 90% of children with disabilities remain excluded from regular education in countries of the south. This book describes a three decade-long change initiative in India to enable children with disabilities to move from segregation and exclusion to inclusive education, and draws lessons for confronting global exclusion. It examines the barriers to inclusion of children with disabilities in the Indian sub-continent, estimated at 4% of the population, or 40-50 million children, and implications of the systemic failure within a human rights framework. The book concludes with setting this initiative in a broader context of inclusive education development efforts, and identifies lessons it provides for a global development agenda for inclusive education, including the importance of ensuring strategies that are culturally appropriate and context-specific.

The optic canal, in particular its intracranial end, represents a "locus minoris resistentiae" for optic nerve compression in a variety of pathologic conditions. The intracranial optic nerve shares the limited space within this narrow passage with the carotid and ophthalmic artery, all being surrounded by bone and rigid dura. Any pathological condition going along with an increase of soft tissue volume, such as in optic nerve sheath tumors, parasellar neoplasms, dolichoectasia of the carotid and/ or ophthalmic artery, hematomas, etc. , or reduction of the lumen of the bony optic canal by hyperpneumatization of the sphenoid sinus, hyperostosis or developmental abnormalities must act as a space-occupying lesion causing optic nerve compression either by pressing the nerve against the vessel or the neighboring dura or bone. The spectrum of clinical signs and symptoms of optic nerve compression in this area is rather wide and includes acute as well as slowly progressive visual loss and all kinds of visual field defects in the presence of a normal disk, papilledema, pri- mary optic atrophy or cavernous optic atrophy mimicking var- ious clinical disease entities such as retrobulbar optic neuritis, anterior and posterior ischemic optic neuropathy, soft glaucoma and others. Some of the lesions causing optic nerve compression in this area are rather small and need to be visualized or excluded by thin section CT such as pneumosinus dilatans of the sphenoid bone, dolichoectasia of the internal carotid artery, small men- ingiomas around the optic foramen and others.

Die Zwangsstorung gilt als vierthaufigste psychische Storung (die Lebenszeiterkrankung liegt bei 2,5 %). Neuere Forschungsergebnisse weisen auf inhaltliche Beziehungen der Zwangsstorung mit anderen psychischen Storungen hin, die auf einem dimensionalen Kontinuum zwischen Kompulsivitat ("Zwanghaftigkeit") und Impulsivitat ("Dranghaftigkeit") angeordnet werden konnen. Zu diesen sogenannten "Spektrumstorungen" zahlen unter anderem Essstorungen, Kaufrausch, Hypochondrie, Trichotillomanie und selbstschadigendes Verhalten. Neben Epidemiologie, Phanomenologie, Neurobiologie und Diagnostik werden hier vor allem therapeutische Ansatze (medikamentos, psychotherapeutisch) der Zwangsstorung und der oben genannten Spektrumstorungen diskutiert. Das Buch vermittelt Hoffnung in der Behandlung dieser schweren Storung und lange unterschatzten Krankheit und betont einen integrativen Behandlungsansatz."

In diesem Buch wird die Elektrophysiologie des Auges auf dem neuesten Stand dargestellt. Dies Buch wendet sich sowohl an denjenigen, der elektrophysiologische Methoden selbst einsetzen will, als auch denjenigen, der sich A1/4ber den aktuellen Stand der MAglichkeiten und Grenzen elektrophysiologischer Untersuchungsverfahren informieren mAchte. Einer kurzen EinfA1/4hrung in die physiologischen Grundlagen der Elektrophysiologie folgt die Vorstellung der einzelnen Methoden. Unter BerA1/4cksichtigung der gA1/4ltigen Standards und Empfehlungen der International Society for Clinical Electrophysiology of Vision (ISCEV) werden die praktischen Aspekte der DurchfA1/4hrung von Ganzfeld-Elektroretinogramm (ERG), Muster-Elektroretinogramm (PERG), multifokalem Elektroretinogramm (mfERG), Elektrookulogramm (EOG), visuell evozierten Potenzialen (VEP) und multifokalen visuell evozierten Potenzialen (mfVEP) dargestellt. Besonderen Wert wird auf die FehlermAglichkeiten der einzelnen Methoden und deren Vermeidung gelegt, um Anleitungen fA1/4r eine standardisierte DurchfA1/4hrung mit hoher ErgebnisqualitAt zu geben. ErgAnzende Methoden fA1/4r spezielle Indikationen werden ebenfalls dargestellt. An zahlreichen Beispielen mit Darstellung der einzelnen Ableitungen werden die Indikationen fA1/4r die individuellen Methoden wie auch fA1/4r den gezielten kombinierten Einsatz verschiedener Methoden erlAutert. DarA1/4ber hinaus wird die Indikation zur DurchfA1/4hrung elektrophysiologischer Untersuchungen im Kontext mit anderen verfA1/4gbaren Diagnoseverfahren diskutiert.
