    • Does it occur between two individuals infant--mother or infant--father or in an extended network? In the West, monotropic attachment appears to function as a secure foundation for infants, but is this true in other cultures?

    This volume offers perspectives from a range of disciplines on these questions. Contributors from psychology, biology, anthropology, evolution, social policy, neuroscience, information systems, and practice describe the latest research on the cultural and evolutionary foundations on children's attachment relationships as well as the implications for education, counseling, and policy.

    The contributors discuss such issues as the possible functions of attachment, including trust and biopsychological regulation; the evolutionary foundations, if any, of attachment; ways to model attachment using the tools of information science; the neural foundations of attachment; and the influence of cultural attitudes on attachment.

    Taking an integrative approach, the book embraces the wide cultural variations in attachment relationships in humans and their diversity across nonhuman primates. It proposes research methods for the culturally sensitive study of attachment networks that will lead to culturally sensitive assessments, practices, and social policies.

    Part 1: An Expanded Perspective

    Nielsen Book Data A86 C85 Unknown. Investors and exploiters in ecology and economics: Oldekop and Reem Hajjar Governance of renewable resources: Sutherland Exploitation in public health Does social exploitation within pathogen populations pose an opportunity for novel therapeutic approaches? Dall, and Luc-Alain Giraldeau Exploitative strategies: King, Michael Kosfeld, Sasha R.

    In the natural world, some agents investors employ strategies that provide resources, services, or information, while others exploiters gain advantages through these efforts.

    This behavior coexists and can be observed in many species and at many levels. For example, bacteria depend on the existence of biofilms to synthesize constituent proteins; cancerous cells employ angiogenesis to feed a tumor; and parents forgo vaccinating their children yet benefit from herd immunity. Two independent research traditions have developed to analyze this behavio -- one couched in evolutionary theory championed by behavioral ecologists, the other in social science concepts advocated by economists.

    In this book experts from economics, evolutionary biology, behavioral ecology, public health, and anthropology look for commonalities in understanding and approach. The contributors consider parasitic strategies in ecological and economic terms; the governance of natural resources, with insights from "producer-scrounger models, " forest management, and game theory; human health, discussing therapeutic opportunities, public health economics, and the integration of perspectives; and behavioral, social, and institutional consequences of exploitation strategies.

    Bell, Herbert Gintis, Paul W. Wallis Shaping the evolution of complex societies Adaptation and maladaptation in the past: Epstein and Julia Chelen Not half bad: Wilson Bibliography Subject index. Two widely heralded yet contested approaches to economics have emerged in recent years: In this book, leading scholars examine these two bodies of theory, exploring their possible impact on economics. Relevant concepts from evolutionary theory drawn on by the contributors include the distinction between proximate and ultimate causation, multilevel selection, cultural change as an evolutionary process, and human psychology as a product of gene-culture coevolution.

    Applicable ideas from complexity theory include self-organization, fractals, chaos theory, sensitive dependence, basins of attraction, and path dependence. The contributors discuss a synthesis of complexity and evolutionary approaches and the challenges that emerge. Focusing on evolutionary behavioral economics, and the evolution of institutions, they offer practical applications and point to avenues for future research. Page, Karthik Panchanathan, Peter J. Summary Cognitive science is experiencing a pragmatic turn away from the traditional representation-centered framework toward a view that focuses on understanding cognition as "enactive.

    In this volume, experts from cognitive science, neuroscience, psychology, robotics, and philosophy of mind assess the foundations and implications of a novel action-oriented view of cognition. Their contributions and supporting experimental evidence show that an enactive approach to cognitive science enables strong conceptual advances, and the chapters explore key concepts for this new model of cognition.

    The contributors discuss the implications of an enactive approach for cognitive development; action-oriented models of cognitive processing; action-oriented understandings of consciousness and experience; and the accompanying paradigm shifts in the fields of philosophy, brain science, robotics, and psychology.

    Cambridge, Massachusetts ; London, England: The MIT Press, Description Book — 1 online resource pages: Summary Experts explore the influence of trace metals on the pathogenesis of infectious diseases. Many parts of the world in which common infectious diseases are endemic also have the highest prevalence of trace metal deficiencies or rising rates of trace metal pollution. Infectious diseases can increase human susceptibility to adverse effects of metal exposure at suboptimal or toxic levels , and metal excess or deficiency can increase the incidence or severity of infectious diseases.

    The co-clustering of major infectious diseases with trace metal deficiency or toxicity has created a complex web of interactions with serious but poorly understood health repercussions, yet has been largely overlooked in animal and human studies. This book focuses on the distribution, trafficking, fate, and effects of trace metals in biological systems. Its goal is to enhance our understanding of the relationships between homeostatic mechanisms of trace metals and the pathogenesis of infectious diseases.

    Drawing on expertise from a range of fields, the book offers a comprehensive review of current knowledge on vertebrate metal-withholding mechanisms and the strategies employed by different microbes to avoid starvation or poisoning. Chapters summarize current, state-of-the-art techniques for investigating pathogen-metal interactions and highlight open question to guide future research.

    The book makes clear that improving knowledge in this area will be instrumental to the development of novel therapeutic measures against infectious diseases. Sabine Becker, Robert E.

    Contag, Heran Darwin, George V. Murphy, Maribel Navarro, Jerome O. Soares, Kyrre Sundseth, Dennis J. The MIT Press, [] Description Book — 1 online resource pages Summary Experts from academia and industry discuss how to create a new, more effective translational neuroscience drawing on novel technology and recent discoveries.

    Today, translational neuroscience faces significant challenges. Available therapies to treat brain and nervous system disorders are extremely limited and dated, and further development has effectively ceased. Disinvestment by the private sector occurred just as promising new technologies in genomics, stem cell biology, and neuroscience emerged to offer new possibilities.

    In this volume, experts from both academia and industry discuss how novel technologies and reworked translation concepts can create a more effective translational neuroscience. The contributors consider such topics as using genomics and neuroscience for better diagnostics and biomarker identification; new approaches to disease based on stem cell technology and more careful use of animal models; and greater attention to human biology and what it will take to make new therapies available for clinical use.
