It is becoming increasingly clear that the brain has an important role in the control and integration of the responses to injury and infection. This is the first volume to look in depth at the way the brain responds to trauma and subsequently integrates and influences behavioral, metabolic, neurohumoral, cardiovascular, and immune functions. It is well established that some of these responses, such as fever and neuroendocrine changes are directly influenced by the central nervous system. These, and other more recent advances, provide new insights into this area and provide a basis for more effective understanding and clinical management of trauma patients. The authors, all international authorities in their fields, discuss established and recent data from experimental and clinical studies and consider the implications of these findings for the treatment of the trauma patient. This book will serve as an excellent reference for professionals who deal with trauma or who work in accident and emergency medicine, neuroscience, neuroimmunology and physiology.

Industry Reviews

"This is a notable contribution, of wider potential clinical interest than might appear, since virtually all types of bodily insult or damage rather than 'trauma' in the sense only of injury, are brought into the same integrative perspective." Sheila Jennett, Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine "...an interesting approach to the primarily chemical study of cerebral tissue responses to trauma." Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology
