Thomas Willis (1621–1675), the founder of Clinical Neuroscience
Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2004Co-Authors: Zoltán MolnárAbstract:Thomas Willis is considered to be one of the greatest neuroanatomists of all time. His name is usually associated with 'the circle of Willis', an anastomotic circle at the base of the brain, but his work also formed the foundation of basic neuroanatomical description and nomenclature, and comparative neuroanatomy. By combining his insightful Clinical observations with his original pathological studies, his enquiring mind established links that are still astonishing 300 years on. For these reasons, Willis' name and achievements should be proclaimed to every new generation of neuroscientists.

Clinical Neuroscience and psychosocial rehabilitation
European Psychiatry, 2016Co-Authors: A. Vaccaro, F. Manfrin, C. Zoppellaro, A. CataniaAbstract:There is a physical world and a world of meanings, symbols and social relationships. Neuroscience considers brain as a biological machine. Social science studies the human relationships. Nowadays we know cerebral processes underlying several aspects of social behavior. Cerebral damages or dysfunctions can influence the social behavior, as well as the social experiences can shape the development, structuring and functioning of the brain and, consequently, condition the further responses of the individuals to the social events. Humans are embodied subject. In an objective sense we are bodies with a brain, in a subjective sense we are individuals in a social world. This is a relevant matter for all the medical sciences, not only for psychiatry. The real-life functioning of individuals with schizophrenia shows deficits in several daily-life abilities, in social relationships and in the work activities. According to literature and Clinical practice, basic criterions are: bio-psycho-social vulnerability, stressful life events, coping strategies as well as social and relational competence. Neurocognitive activity shows a straight correlation, albeit indirect, with the real-life functioning. Positive symptoms, negative symptoms and disorganized behavior can considerably influence the real-life functioning. While social and relational competence, the general functioning and resilience are protective factors that can positively condition real-life functioning. Moreover, welfare services (i.e. assisted job placement; disability subsidies; etc.) and a good family and social network can considerably influence the results. According to the results above, we can affirm the importance to adopt integrated and personalized therapeutic-rehabilitative program for the treatment of schizophrenia and other serious mental disorders.

DISEASES OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM: Clinical Neuroscience AND THERAPEUTIC PRINCIPLES. Third edition
Brain, 2004Co-Authors: Geraint FullerAbstract:DISEASES OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM: Clinical Neuroscience AND THERAPEUTIC PRINCIPLES. Third edition Edited by A. K. Asbury, G. M. McKhann, W. I. McDonald, P. J. Goadsby and J. C. McArthur 2002. Pp. 2194. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press Price £250. ISBN 0‐521‐79351‐3 Broadly speaking, neurology textbooks can be placed in three categories: small introductory texts, aimed primarily at medical students and junior doctors; single‐volume texts that give a more thorough coverage of the subject for neurology trainees and provide an easy source of reference for non‐neurologists; and large, multivolume texts that are usually used as the first point of reference by neurologists before going to the primary literature. This textbook, which comes in two volumes with an elegant box and is over 2000 pages in length, would seem naturally to fall into the last of these categories. However, if you approach the book with this expectation you will be disappointed, for this is neither the aim nor the outcome for this text. The editors have aimed to focus on the mechanisms of neurological disease and the principles that form the basis for therapy, and specifically do not deal with the incidence, natural history or phenomenology of neurological disease, the bread and butter of most neurological texts. They assume a basic grasp of neurology but the intended target audience is trainees in neurology at all levels, both specialist and generalist, from medical students onwards, as well as neuroscientists of any background. This is an ambitious departure from the form and objective of most large textbooks. How …
