Overview: Lifespan perspective that acknowledges the accumulating impact of genetic and environmental influences.Inclusion of research on both normative and non-normative cognitive functioning.Input from relateAlong with psychopathology, cognition has been one of the primary phenotypic focal points of the field of behavior genetics since its inception. Francis Galton’s 1874 examination of eminent families in Britain was among the earliest attempts to investigate whether cognitive achievements run in families. This volume presents current methodologies for understanding cognitive abilities that

Overview: Before Machiavelli, political freedom was approached as aproblem of the best distribution of the functions of ruler and ruled.Machiavelli changed the terms of freedom, requiring that its discourseaddress the demand for no-rule or non-domination. Political freedomwould then develop only through a strategy of antagonism to every formof legitimate domination. This leads to the emergence of modernpolitical life: any institution that wishes to rule legitimately mustsimultaneously be inscribed with its immanent critique and imminentsubversion. For Machiavelli, the possibility of institutin

Overview: In the third Erlangen-Nuremberg symposium on experimental geronto­ logy we discussed the effect of aging on blood cells and rheology. Most studies with red cells have been performed on humans, rats, and rabbits. All these erythrocytes have no nucleus; the cells are therefore a model in which new synthesis of proteins is impossible. All the processes are age dependent except for exchange with the plasma. Investigations of red cells have attracted attention because of the latter‘s availability in large quantities from biochemists, physiologists, immunologists, and micro­ scopists. We n

Overview: Clarifies the nature and action of the sixth sense from a scientific perspective.Provides a systematic approach to an emerging concept.Discusses the sixth sense in the context of human health and beha.Multiple senses, like multiple intelligences, are a key to brain variability and therefore human evolution. Besides the traditional five senses (vision, olfaction, gustation, audition, and somatosensory), humans can also perceive the body’s own position (the sense of proprioception) and movement (the vestibular sense). Interoception is the feeling one has about the internal physiologica
