With a focus on the practical, day-to-day tools needed by
neurologists, psychiatrists, geriatricians, and others who work
with the elderly, Memory Loss, Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia,
3rd Edition, is an indispensable, easy-to-read resource in this
growing area. Clinical experts Drs. Andrew Budson and Paul Solomon
cover the essentials of physical and cognitive examinations and
laboratory and imaging studies for dementia and related illnesses,
giving you the guidance you need to make accurate diagnosis and
treatment decisions with confidence. Provides in-depth coverage of
clinically useful diagnostic tests and the latest research findings
and treatment approaches. Incorporates real-world case studies that
facilitate the management of both common and uncommon conditions.
Contains new chapters on Alzheimer's look-alikes and posterior
cortical atrophy. Covers key topics such as chronic traumatic
encephalopathy, primary age-related tauopathy (PART) and
limbic-predominant, age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE), in
addition to new criteria for dementia with Lewy bodies and
posterior cortical atrophy. Includes current National Institute on
Aging-Alzheimer's Association and DSM-5 criteria for Alzheimer's
disease and mild cognitive impairment. Demonstrates how to use
diagnostic tests such as the amyloid imaging scans florbetapir
(Amyvid), flutemetamol (Vizamyl), and florbetaben (Neuraceq), which
can display amyloid plaques in the living brains of patients, as
well as the new tau scans. Includes access to more than two dozen
videos that illustrate common tests, clinical signs, and diagnostic
features. Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your
enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and
references from the book on a variety of devices.
This volume contains a collection of papers written by former
students, postdoctoral fellows, and colleagues of Richard Thompson
and represent written versions of papers presented at the
Festschrift symposium. The Festschrift provided an excellent
opportunity for the participants to recount their memories and
experiences of working with one of the leading figures in
behavioral neuroscience, and to place their current research in the
context of earlier research conducted in the Thompson laboratory.
As a Festschrift volume, the various chapters contain numerous and
sometimes very personal references to Richard Thompson's influence
on the careers of the authors, as well as summaries of past and
present work being conducted in the authors' laboratories. Part I
includes studies of spinal cord plasticity and the involvement of
the hippocampus and related structure in classical eyeblink
conditioning. Part II explores the critical role of the cerebellum
and associated areas in classical eyeblink conditioning. Part III
focuses on a continued exploration of the involvement of the
cerebellum in classical eyeblink conditioning using standard
procedures as well as innovative molecular biology and genetic
techniques. It also includes studies aimed at delineating
modulatory influences on learning such as stress and hormonal
factors.
The incredible influence that Richard Thompson has had on the
fields of experimental psychology and neuroscience should be
evident on reading the contributions made by the various authors to
this volume. The research conducted in Thompson's laboratory over
the years has been cutting-edge, comprehensive, and influential.
Therefore, this volume is dedicated to Richard F. Thompson a
productive, innovative scientist and outstanding mentor.

"Memory: Interdisciplinary Approaches" arrays the most current
research and thinking on the cognitive, social, and neural aspects
of memory. An international group of experts discusses the domains
of working memory and the modularity of storage processes while
other contributors examine the social and developmental
consequences of memory. This volume represents the most
comprehensive reviews of "frontline" memory work to date. This
collection is based on the first series of G. Stanley Hall Lectures
sponsored by Williams College.
