• Sommario/riassunto: An exploration of the nature of dopamine-glutamate interactions in the basal ganglia from receptor molecules to complex behaviors, this volume reviews basic anatomy, discusses the subtypes and signaling ; pathways of the dopamine and glutamate receptors expressed in the basal ganglia, and their interaction down to the molecular level. Coverage includes endogenous and exogenous modulators of dopamine-glutamate interactions and the implications of these interactions, measuring the key basal ganglia functions at the physiological and behavioral level. It also examines the concept that compromised dopamine-glutamate interactions may underpin basal ganglia disorders--Provided by publisher.

• Sommario/riassunto: A major objective of this book is to fill the gap between traditional logic design principles and logic design/optimization techniques used in practice. Over the last two decades several techniques for computer-aided design and optimization of logic circuits have been developed. However, underlying theories of these techniques are inadequately covered or not covered at all in undergraduate text books. This book covers not only the ""classical"" material found in current text books but also selected materials that modern logic designers need to be familiar with.
