"""This book provides a very good review of a large amount of information on the use of magnetic fields for the stimulation of the brain and imaging. It is particularly strong in the area of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the brain, where the authors have made important contributions to the field. The parameters … are well described, along with some of the current limitations of this technique. The material is at a level that provides a good starting point for both students and designers who wish to work in this area. … The discussion of magnetoencephalography (MEG) includes a good description of the inverse problem in locating the signal generating nerves and the need to detect very weak magnetic signals that are generated by the firing of small nerve bundles. … The treatment of nuclear magnetic resonance is quite complete. … a good starting point for students and workers in the field who are interested in both MRI imaging systems and those who are interested in exploring the effects of magnetic fields on biological systems."" —Frank S. Barnes, Professor Emeritus of Electrical Computer and Energy Engineering, University of Colorado at Boulder ""Biomagnetics to a large extent reflects the extraordinary scientific accomplishments of Dr. Shoogo Ueno. At the same time, this book is so well organized that it could be used as a textbook for a senior or graduate course in biomagnetics. Unlike most other books in this field, the focus here is a mechanistic understanding of the fundamental phenomena, which are then harnessed for important applications. In a clear and pedagogical approach, Professors Ueno and Sekino introduce you to the extraordinary discoveries made in Dr. Ueno’s laboratory. One example is the invention of the figure eight coil that is used to induce transcranial magnetic stimulation, which today is a growing field of medicine for the treatment of devastating conditions that do not respond to drug therapy. Biomagnetics also describes two important discoveries of how magnetic fields can affect biological systems. One explains how strong static magnetic fields can affect the polarization of the growth of cells and another how relatively low radio frequency magnetic fields can affect the uptake and release of iron from the protein ferritin. For students, this book introduces them to all the major areas of biomagnetics; for teachers, it suggests a novel syllabus and for researchers, it gives a perspective on the leading edges of biomagnetics."" —Dr. Frank S. Prato, PhD, FCCPM, FCOMP, Imaging Program Leader and Assistant Scientific Director, Lawson Health Research Institute, and Professor, Departments of Medical Imaging and Medical Biophysics, University of Western Ontario ""Ueno and Sekino’s book on biomagnetism offers comprehensive coverage of this increasingly important field of physics applied to biology and medicine. The authors, who are well-known contributors to this area’s state of knowledge, present an in-depth but highly readable account of the way magnetic fields are used both to influence biological systems and measure body function. In addition, the book covers the way magnetic fields produced by the body itself can be measured. Highly recommended to all students and researchers who are looking for an authoritative treatise on this expanding topic."" —Andrew Wood, Professor and Chair of Biomedical and Health Sciences, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia ""In his long and successful academic career, Professor Shoogo Ueno has contributed significantly to the scientific and technological development of the biomagnetics field. … Biomagnetics: Principles and Applications of Biomagnetic Stimulation and Imaging covers the whole range of the field as would be expected from the editors’ past work. Many observable phenomena induced by the interaction of magnetic fields with biological materials are described here together with the underlying basic physics of magnetism and/or electromagnetics so that readers can better understand these phenomena."" —From the Foreword by Dr. Seiji Ogawa, Professor, Tohoku Fukushi University, Sendai, Japan, and Distinguished Visiting Professor and Director of fMRI Research, Neuroscience Research Institute, Gachon University of Medicine and Science, South Korea ""Written by seven different experts, including the two editors, it covers a variety of topics that starts with the history of biomagnetism that goes as far back as 1600…In addition to TMS, this book discusses other non-invasive techniques such as magnetoencephalography (MEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)… The chapters in the book can be read as stand-alone in any order. Some are more technical than others but the book itself can be considered as a light reading.

The interactions between (electro)magnetic fields and biological materials are complex. Complexity increases when biological materials are alive and performing a physiological function. Understanding these interactions requires solid knowledge on electromagnetism, biology and physiology, and an openness of mind. The book succeeds in presenting this complex matter in a rigorous but understandable way. This book will be of great interest for both engineers and physicist working in the fields, as well as for the technically-skilled medical doctors...This is a highly recommended book...Anyone working or wishing to work in the filed should read it. -Pere J.
