Sommario/riassunto

Art and Adaptability argues for a co-evolution of theory of mind and material/art culture. The book covers relevant areas from great ape intelligence, hominin evolution, Stone Age tools, Paleolithic culture and art forms, to neurobiology. We use material and art objects, whether painting or sculpture, to modify our own and other people’s thoughts so as to affect behavior. We don’t just make judgments about mental states; we create objects about which we make judgments in which mental states are inherent. Moreover, we make judgments about these objects to facilitate how we explore the minds and feelings of others. The argument is that it’s not so much art because of theory of mind but art as theory of mind.

Sommario/riassunto

"A reliable and useful reference for understanding the practical application of hemodynamics in clinical medicine. This concise handbook will help clinicians better understand and interpret hemodynamic data used to make specific diagnoses and monitor ongoing therapy. The book is divided into chapters which discuss the hemodynamic findings in specific cardiac conditions including valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathies, myocardial infarction, pericardial disease, hemodynamic support, arrhythmias and coronary hemodynamics. There are chapters on the hemodynamics of transcatheter valves, cardiogenic shock and mechanical support



devices. There is a section on the basics of hemodynamics that will be particularly useful to physicians and advanced practice providers who are new to hemodynamics. The book is designed to be used by cardiologists, intensivists, anesthesiologists and surgeons"-- Provided by publisher.
