The book covers a wide range of topics by leading researchers, including: ? Superior performance after brain lesions or sensory loss ? Return to normal function after a second brain lesion in neurological conditions ? Paradoxical phenomena associated with human development ? Examples where having one disease appears to prevent the occurrence of another disease ? Situations where drugs with adverse effects on brain functioning may have beneficial effects in certain situations A better understanding of these interactions will lead to a better understanding of brain function and to the introduction of new therapeutic strategies. The book will be of interest to those working at the interface of brain and behaviour, including neuropsychologists, neurologists, psychiatrists and neuroscientists. 606 $aBrain 606 $aNeurophysiology 606 $aBrain$xDiseases 606 $aParadox 615 0$aBrain. 615 0$aNeurophysiology. 615 0$aBrain$xDiseases. 615 0$aParadox. 676 $a612.8/2 702 $aKapur$b Narinder 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812945503321 996 $aThe paradoxical brain$93952636 997 $aUNINA
