Quatrième de couverture : "Le professeur Steven Laureys est un neurologue mondialement connu qui mène avec son équipe depuis plus de vingt ans des recherches sur les états de conscience. Il nous expose ici les effets de la méditation sur notre corps et sur notre esprit. À travers ses recherches sur le cerveau de Matthieu Ricard, il nous montre comment elle stimule le fonctionnement cérébral et le modifie de manière positive. Mais il n’est pas nécessaire d’être moine bouddhiste ou neurologue pour vivre les changements positifs de la méditation. Les bienfaits qui en résultent pour notre santé mentale – moins de stress, un meilleur sommeil, plus de concentration, moins d’anxiété, des effets antidépresseurs et antidouleur… – sont à la portée de chacun d’entre nous. Grâce à ce livre, vous allez non seulement mieux comprendre l’action de la méditation sur nos neurones, mais aussi avoir envie de faire pour vous-même les exercices de méditation, simples et efficaces, qui sont proposés ! Oui, la méditation peut changer votre vie, comme elle a changé celle de Steven Laureys et de beaucoup de patients qu’il suit ! « Le livre de Steven Laureys ouvre des perspectives passionnantes. » Matthieu Ricard, moine bouddhiste et traducteur du dalaï-Lama. « Steven Laureys nous offre le livre qu’on attendait pour mieux comprendre les effets de la méditation sur nos vies. Clair, vivant, rigoureux et authentique, un livre qui fait du bien. » Ilios Kotsou, chaire « Mindfulness, bien-être et paix économique », Grenoble. Pour la première fois, un médecin chercheur démontre que la méditation, c’est bon pour le cerveau ! Le professeur Steven Laureys est neurologue et directeur de recherches FNRS. Il dirige le Centre du cerveau2 au CHU de Liège et l’unité de recherches GIGA Consciousness et Coma Science Group de l’Université de Liège. Connu pour ses travaux sur la conscience des patients cérébrolésés, il a notamment publié Un si brillant cerveau, qui a eu beaucoup de succès."

Learning Deep Brain Stimulation Management through Clinical Cases provides an in-depth exploration of the management of deep brain stimulation (DBS) through a series of clinical cases. Edited by Martijn Beudel and contributed by numerous experts, the book focuses on the application of DBS in treating neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease, dystonia, and other movement disorders. It discusses when and how to refer patients, challenges in electrode placement, and the management of psychiatric symptoms associated with DBS. The text serves as a guide for neurologists, neurosurgeons, and clinicians involved in the care of patients receiving DBS therapy, enhancing their understanding of treatment protocols and patient outcomes. The book is a valuable resource for medical professionals seeking to expand their knowledge and expertise in the field of neuromodulation.

Non-traumatic posterior fossa haemorrhage accounts for approximately 10% of all intracranial haematomas, and 1.5% of all strokes. In the posterior fossa, a small amount of mass effect can have dramatic effects, due to its small volume. This can be due to immediate transmission of pressure to the brainstem, or via occlusion of the aqueduct of Sylvius or compression of the fourth ventricle, leading to acute obstructive hydrocephalus, with the risk of tonsillar herniation. Timely investigations and management are essential to maximise good outcomes. This Element offers a brief overview of posterior fossa haemorrhage. It looks at the anatomy, aetiology, management, and surgical options, with a review of the available evidence to guide practice.

The new edition of the highly popular, The Fractal Geometry of the Brain, reviews the most intriguing applications of fractal analysis in neuroscience with a focus on current and future potential, limits, advantages, and disadvantages. It brings an understanding of fractals to clinicians and researchers even if they do not have a mathematical background, and it serves as a valuable tool for teaching the translational applications of computational fractal-based models to both students and scholars. As a consequence of the novel research developed at Professor Di Ieva's laboratory and other centers around the world, the second edition will explore the use of computational fractal-based analysis in many clinical disciplines and different fields of research, including neurology and neurosurgery, neuroanatomy and psychology, magnetoencephalography (MEG), eye-tracking devices (for the fractal computational characterization of “scanpaths”), deep learning in image analysis, radiomics for the characterization of brain MRIs, characterization of neuropsychological and psychiatric diseases and traits, signal complexity analysis in time series, and functional MRI, amongst others.
