A detailed examination of the major neuropsychiatric syndromes of Parkinson's disease and a cognitive theory that accounts for their neurology and phenomenology. Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) suffer most visibly with such motor deficits as tremor and rigidity and less obviously with a range of nonmotor symptoms, including autonomic dysfunction, mood disorders, and cognitive impairment. The neuropsychiatric disturbances of PD can be as disabling as its motor disorders; but they have only recently begun to be studied intensively by clinicians and scientists. In this book, Patrick McNamara examines the major neuropsychiatric syndromes of PD in detail and offers a cognitive theory that accounts for both their neurology and their phenomenology. McNamara offers an up-to-date review of current knowledge of such neuropsychiatric manifestations of PD as cognitive deficits, personality changes, speech and language symptoms, sleep disorders, apathy, psychosis, and dementia. He argues that the cognitive, mood, and personality symptoms of PD stem from the weakening or suppression of the agentic aspects of the self. McNamara's study may well lead to improved treatment for Parkinson's patients. But its overarching goal is to arrive at a better understanding of the human mind and its breakdown patterns in patients with PD. The human mind-brain is an elaborate and complex structure patched together to produce what we call the self. When we observe the disruption of the self structure that occurs with the various neuropsychiatric disorders associated with PD, McNamara argues, we get a glimpse into the inner workings of the most spectacular structure of the self: the agentic self, the self that acts.

It is still largely unknown what the general course is in the progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). Presumably more than one factor is responsible. There is evidence suggesting that metabolic compromise, excitotoxicity and oxidative stress are involved in the neurodegenerative process causing PD. To investigate the connection of excitotoxicity and oxidative stress with metabolic compromise in the development of the disease, anti-excitotoxic treatment with riluzole and anti-oxidant treatment with EGCG will be compared to untreated controls and to a standard treatment with L-DOPA in a MPTP induced Parkinson model. We hypothesize that critical changes indicating the nature of the gradual patho-physiological changes leading to PD will be revealed if anti-oxidants or anti-excitatory treatments are given in a situation where the brain is susceptible to develop PD. The comparison, of the results on the different levels of research, between the neuroprotective regimes and the symptom control drug L-DOPA will give insight in the relative role of the different markers for neuroprotection and behavioral output. In particular relatively new technologies such as differential proteomics and sleep research will yield novel insights. In this report period new test methods were developed, the use of brain imaging or neurophysiology was validated and the dose range finding of the test compounds was performed. The highest sign-free dose will be used in the neuroprotective experiments.

"Neurology is a quantitively small corner of medicine that, increasingly, occupies a position of outsized importance and distinction in both the practice of medicine and in the health and well-being of society. The Decade of the Brain came into public awareness in 1990 as an initiative of president George W. Bush involving the NIH and NIMH "to enhance public awareness of the benefits to be derived from brain research"(1). In the intervening 20 years since 1999, we have seen significant increases in understanding the myriad of neurological diseases that confront society"--
