Opis
Interoception
The term interoception refers to information that is sent by the nervous system from the body to the brain. Despite its importance in the control of visceral organ function emotional-motivational processes and in psychosomatic disorders, the topic has not received as much attention as central functions of the nervous system. This book provides the first review of the field and will be of interest to scientists in neurobiology, psychology and brain imaging to individuals in related clinical fields such as psychiatry, neurology, cardiology, gastroenterology, and clinical psychology, and to their students and nurses.
