Synopsis

Long celebrated as the brain’s “memory center,” the hippocampus is far more dynamic, intricate, and influential than once imagined. This book brings together scientists and clinicians to illuminate the hidden workings of this important brain region and its profound impact on cognition and mental health. In these pages, readers will explore the microscopic architecture of hippocampal circuits and the large-scale networks that allow us to navigate the world, imagine the future, and weave the narratives of our lives. The contributors reveal how the hippocampus encodes experience, orchestrates learning, and collaborates with the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and sensory systems to support thought, emotion, and behavior. However, the hippocampus is also vulnerable, and its dysfunction gives rise to some of the most challenging neurological and psychiatric disorders of our time. The Hippocampus - Cognitive Functions and Disorders is an essential resource for neuroscientists, clinicians, psychologists, and students. Whether you are an expert seeking cutting-edge insights or a curious reader drawn to the science of memory and the mind, this book offers authoritative insight into one of neuroscience’s most fascinating frontiers.
