Abstract

Cognitive reserve has emerged as a powerful concept for interpreting individual differences in susceptibility to, and recovery from, brain injury or pathology. Underlying cognitive reserve is the idea that individual differences in how cognitive tasks are mediated in the brain allow some people to cope with pathology to a greater degree than others. Cognitive Reserve: Theory and Applications describes in depth the source of these individual differences. This volume provides a comprehensive review of theory, research and clinical application of the cognitive reserve. Chapters explore the theoretical underpinnings of cognitive reserve, and evidence for its existence. Various approaches for studying this concept are addressed, including epidemiologic, cognitive experimental, and neuroimaging. Possible genetic and physiologic underpinnings of cognitive reserve are presented. Application of this concept to a wide range of situations, including child development, aging, Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, HIV, and head injury is discussed. The result is an up-to-date, global treatment of cognitive reserve that will be of interest to someone new to the concept or the experienced investigator.

Abstract

Successful cognitive and emotional aging is not the same as successful physical aging, and yet, until recently, medical research and public health initiatives have focused solely on the latter. The editors of Successful Cognitive and Emotional Aging are doing their best to change that. Their new volume bridges the gap between popular science for a lay audience and the heavily theoretical, academic approach of other books on the aging brain. The book provides not only the scientific foundations of cognitive aging and a review of research supporting specific interventions, but also down-to-earth, evidence-based strategies for diet, exercise, cognitive training, and environment. As the population ages, the need for practical treatment strategies and interventions becomes more pressing. Thankfully, as the authors make clear, it is never too early or too late to improve brain health. Successful Cognitive and Emotional Aging should prove invaluable to both clinicians and the patients they treat and advise.

Abstract

The influence of nutrition on cognition and behaviour is a topic of increasing interest. Emerging evidence indicates that nutrition in early life can influence later mental performance and that diet in later life can reduce cognitive decline. Lifetime nutritional influences on cognition, behaviour and psychiatric illness reviews the latest research into the effects of nutrition on cognition and behaviour across the lifespan and on psychiatric illness.Part one investigates nutritional influences on brain development and cognition including the effects of early diet and the impact of key
