Kompletný popis

Cognitive enhancement offers a potential benefit to a variety of populations: neurologic and psychiatric disorders are associated with cognitive impairment, a growing population suffers from mild aging-related cognitive impairment, and those with normal functioning may desire improvement of intellectual performance. While there has been a substantial increase in research tools allowing for multiple-level analysis of cognition, building our knowledge of the molecular/cellular basis of cognitive function and offering the possibility technological development to enhance cognition, there is currently a gap in coverage in the research market. This volume addresses that gap, gathering multidisciplinary knowledge and providing tools for understanding the basics of cognitive enhancement and assistance in designing procedures/pharmacological approaches to further the use of novel cognitive enhancers. Separate sections are presented on enhancement drugs, environmental conditions and genetic factors, as well as on enhancement with regard to specific diseases. These topics are discussed in terms of both human and animal studies, and with regard to both healthy/young and aging/diseased individuals. * Offers readers coverage of the pharmacologic, environmental and genetic factors relevant to cognitive enhancement* Discusses cognitive enhancement from the perspective of both healthy and diseased or aging populations* Topics are discussed in terms of both human and animal studies
