Mindful Reading   This month, read up on two common conditions that affect mental health, anxiety and depression, or explore our other selections on the mind and brain. Be sure to check out Health & Medicine for the latest reporting on the coronavirus pandemic and more.

Mind Over Mood: Understanding Anxiety & Depression Anxiety and depression are two of the most common conditions affecting mental health and overall quality of life, but there are tools for managing them. In this eBook, we’ll explore how depression shows up in the brain, different manifestations of depression and anxiety, various talk therapies, technological innovations, lifestyle interventions and more.

Secrets of the Brain The sense of position and movement is often called the sixth sense; the brain’s connection to the immune system might be a seventh. In this eBook, we examine the diverse functions of the brain beyond the five senses, including the glymphatic system for maintaining brain health, the processes behind intuition and new research raising questions about “brain death.”

New Frontiers in Alzheimer’s Until recently, the amyloid hypothesis has dominated research in treating Alzheimer’s disease. Those therapies have repeatedly fallen short, and in this eBook we take a look at where that hypothesis stands today. We examine recent research into the spectrum of disease causes, including inflammation and immune dysfunction; cutting-edge treatments, including deep-brain stimulation and magnetic resonance–guided focused ultrasound; as well as lifestyle interventions that can help protect from disease.

Health & Medicine Explore the cutting-edge science of everything from human health and epidemiology to biotechnology and medicine.
