Endocannabinoids
There is currently considerable interest in the development of medicines that would enhance endocannabinoid-induced “autoprotection”, for example through inhibition of endocannabinoid metabolizing enzymes or cellular uptake processes or that would oppose endocannabinoid-induced “autoimpairment”. This volume describes the physiology, pathophysiology and pharmacology of the endocannabinoi…

Stimulation and Recording Electrodes for Neural Prostheses
In prosthetic devices, electrodes are the interfaces between the implant system and the body. Electrodes may be used for neural stimulation or neural signal recording according to the application. The signals to be recorded are typically small, i.e. some tens of microvolts for single pulse activity to a maximum amplitude of around 80 mV for intracellular potentials measured for example by f…

The Politics of Affective Societies: An Interdisciplinary Essay
Many claim that political deliberation has become exceedingly affective, and hence, destabilizing. The authors of this book revisit that assumption. While recognizing that significant changes are occurring, these authors also point out the limitations of turning to contemporary democratic theory to understand and unpack these shifts. They propose, instead, to reframe this debate by deploying th…

Nanotechnology-Based Precision Tools for the Detection and Treatment of Cancer
This book discusses emerging nanotechnology-based tools that have the potential to dramatically impact cancer research, diagnostics, and treatment. Cancer is a complex, devastating, and debilitating disease and, although much progress has been made, novel, more effective diagnostic and treatment options are still needed, especially for advanced cancers. The ultimate goal is to detect cancer ear…

Theories in and of Mathematics Education Theory Strands in German Speaking C…
This survey provides an overview of German meta-discourse on theories and mathematics education as a scientific discipline, from the 1970s to the 1990s. Two theory strands are offered: a semiotic view related to Peirce and Wittgenstein (presented by Willibald Dörfler), and the theory of learning activity by Joachim Lompscher (presented by Regina Bruder and Oliver Schmitt). By networking the tw…

End-of-Life Care in Cardiovascular Disease
End-of-life issues in cardiology are becoming increasingly important in the management of patients in the cardiac unit, but there is frequently a lack of understanding regarding their impact on cardiology practice. The cardiac unit is increasingly becoming the location whereby a number of key clinical decisions relating to end-of-life care are being made, such as the decision to remove medicati…
