Grappling with Gravity explores the physiological how life in different worlds -- such as outerspace or settlements on the moon -- would affect humans, plants and animals. The test explores how the human body will begin, almost immediately, to adapt and change to be able to function in these strange environments.
This book describes the interaction of gravity with neuronal systems. It describes the structures of neuronal systems and presents platforms for gravity research, providing an overview about neurophysiological research under conditions of variable gravity.
From background physics and biological models to imaging and treatment modalities, this book covers various theoretical and practical aspects of radiotherapy physics and biology. It discusses the support requirements of external beam radiotherapy and explores advances in photon and particle therapy. It offers a framework of radiation protection.
Discusses the physics of and related scientific information on brain control using electromagnetic mind fields. This book provides a scientific viewpoint on the possibility of the effects of EM on the human brain and mind. It considers methods of EM information extracting from and delivery into the human brain.
Provides medical and physics students with an exploration of the physics-related applications found in medical centers. With an emphasis on digital imaging and computers in medicine, the text gives readers a fundamental understanding of the practical application of each.
