Among neuromodulation procedures, electrical stimulation of peripheral nerves (PNS) is probably the most underappreciated modality. Although PNS is used for all kinds of medical conditions, ranging from chronic neuropathic pain and headache to epilepsy, depression, hypertension …
Peripheral nerves are biologic wires that convey the desire for motion from brain to muscle, and the experience of touch from skin to brain. When a nerve is cut, the individual fibers, or axons, must regenerate from the site of injury to reconnect with their skin and muscle targ…
In a rapidly growing field of neuromodulation against pain, this excellent publication presents a unique compilation of the latest theoretical and practical information for electrical stimulation of the peripheral nerves. Chapters cover the use of peripheral nerve stimulation in…

"Our wired nerves: the human nerve connectome reviews the unique and fascinating anatomy and physiology of the peripheral nerves and their axons. It also introduces the reader to what neuropathies are, how pain arises from damaged nerves, and how nerves might be regenerated, inc…
The emphasis throughout this volume is on the systematic development of the viewpoint that regeneration is an instance of synthesis of tissues and organs. This has three simple consequences. The first is the requirement for a special kind of experimental reactor, free of tissues…
