Clinical Neurogastroenterology
Neurogastroenterology is a subspecialty of gastroenterology which deals with the diseases wherein disordered interactions take place between the central nervous system (CNS) and the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Neurogastroenterology deals with alterations taking place along the gut-brain axis. The brain-gut axis refers to the two-way biochemical signaling that takes place between the GI tract and the CNS. Neurogastroenterology deals with the neurology of the GI tract, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. It also focuses on the control of digestion through the enteric nervous system, the central nervous system, and integrative centers in sympathetic ganglia. The field of neurogastroenterology predominantly studies the diseases of the intrinsic enteric nervous system, i.e. the brain of the gut, which is a part of the nervous system and is responsible for controlling motility, endocrine secretions, and microcirculation of the gastrointestinal system. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of neurogastroenterology.

Aphasia: A Cognitive Neuropsychological Approach
Damage to the language dominant side of the brain usually results in a condition called aphasia. In aphasia, the speech of a person is impaired. Although, any type of damage can cause aphasia, it is primarily caused by stroke. Cognitive neuropsychological techniques aim to identify the essential language skills or modules that are not functioning properly in each individual rather than putting them into a specific subtype. A person may struggle with a single module or a number of modules. These methods necessitate a framework or theory for determining which skills/modules are required to execute various types of language activities. Different types of speech and language therapies, such as visual communication therapy (VIC), functional communication therapy (FCT) and melodic intonation therapy (MIT) are helpful in managing aphasia. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the cognitive neuropsychological approach to aphasia. The topics covered herein offer the readers new insights in this condition. This book includes contributions of experts and scientists which will provide innovative insights into aphasia.
