    Summary: "The study of how the brain processes temporal information is becoming one of the most important topics in systems, cellular, computational, and cognitive neuroscience, as well as in the physiological bases of music and language. During the last and current decade, interval timing has been intensively studied in humans and animals using increasingly sophisticated methodological approaches. The present book will bring together the latest information gathered from this exciting area of research, putting special emphasis on the neural underpinnings of time processing in behaving human and non-human primates. Thus, Neurobiology of Interval Timing will integrate for the first time the current knowledge of both animal behavior and human cognition of the passage of time in different behavioral context, including the perception and production of time intervals, as well as rhythmic activities, using different experimental and theoretical frameworks."--Publisher's description (excerpt).

    It may at times be difficult to separate supra- from infratentorial and intra- from extraaxial pathology on the basis of axial transverse computed tomography (CT) scans. Coronal CT scans may be quite useful in more accurate localization of compartments. Three head injured patients with subdural hematomas were studied with axial transverse CT scans. In addition to the typical appearance of subdural hematomas, unusually shaped areas of increased attenuation were noted in the region of the tentorium cerebelli separate from the mass of the subdural collection. Coronal scans confirmed the supratentorial, extraaxial collection as an extension of the subdural hematoma into the supratentorial subdural space.
