I used to wonder why we have so many health care managers and so few health care leaders. If you are curious about the same thing–Jo Manion explains it all in this book. –Leland R. Kaiser, president, Kaiser Consulting «Today's challenging health care environment requires leadership qualities based on fundamental interpersonal competencies. In this book Manion presents helpful insights with lots of…

Classical studies of steroid hormones are concerned with their regulation of protein synthesis via the modulation of genomic transcription. But many of the actions of these hormones occur too rapidly to be explained in this manner, particularly their effects on the central nervous system. This text deals with recent discoveries showing that steroids can modulate the activity of some neurotransmitt…
Sensory Guidance of Movement Chairman: Mitchell Glickstein, 1998 In the past few years there has been an increasing recognition of the multiplicity of sensory and motor areas of the cerebral cortex. However, still relatively little is known about the way in which sensory areas are functionally linked to motor areas. On the basis of current anatomical evidence, there are three major pathways involv…
