The physiology and pathophysiology of control systems are examined in this volume, which specifically treats those control systems that play a dominant role in the somato-vegetative adaptation to physical and psychical activation, such as the respiratory, the cardiovascular and the motor systems. The main emphasis of the text is not so much on the recent findings in each of these special areas, but rather on the interactions, correlations and co-ordinations between the systems. Lists of references are given to provide access to further, more special information. The individual contributions extend from cellular mechanisms and finer localization within the brain to mathematical treatment of complex systems and whole systems function. A final section deals with physiological and pathophysiological applications in man, as this is a new trend of growing clinical relevance.
