Michael R. Trimble. (2016). The Intentional Brain : Motion, Emotion, and the Development of Modern Neuropsychiatry. Johns Hopkins University Press.

  • Trimble’s book goes into detail about how an individual’s brain functions in accordance to one’s emotion, motion and allows for a deeper understanding of the human experience. It not only describes the brain and its functions on medical terms, but it also emphasizes how the brain and its emotions allows for different narratives to form, and allows for our understanding of them. I believe this can be essential to the paper because it provides information about mood in general; facilitating my ability to try to find a relationship with it and epilepsy. It gives me a basic understanding first. It also briefly mentions epilepsy in relation to mood, which evidently is very important information in regards to what I’m researching.

 

Bautista, R. E. D. (2012). Epilepsy : A Century of Discovery. Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

  • Bautista and Edmundo’s book is about most of the knowledge and information acquired about Epilepsy in general. This is a very imperative source because like the first source, it provides me with the basic information for a key part of my research; the neurological disease, Epilepsy. In order to be able to see how this disease affects another factor,in this case being one’s mood, it’s indispensable to understand the illness first.

  • This study was done with an Epilepsy medication called oxcarbazepine, and it talks about its effect on a patient with partial Epilepsy’s mood. This study would absolutely be useful to my research because it contains information that can answer one of the three key questions that are part of my research; on how medication affects one’s mood. It also provides me with information on how they assess one’s mood, or how they interpret the symptoms that some patients may present.

  • This article highlights the “consequences,” that come with being Epileptic. The consequences discussed or included in the article incluse suicide, depression, and physical injuries as well; injuries that can be due to seizures. Not only is this source very interesting, but depression and suicide are two factors that have to due with one’s mental health, which in turn includes an individual’s mood. It provides more information on the main component of my research, and can allow me to bring another author’s perspective on how Epilepsy affects mood.

  • This article is about an experiment done with families who have multiple people with epilepsy, and seeing how prevalent mood disorders were with them. This not only once again mentions the relationship between Epilepsy and one’s mood, but I believe that it can take my research a bit further and mention the topic of genetics. It can mention whether or not genetic susceptibility to both types of illnesses can cause a prevalence in mood disorder with those who simultaneously suffer from Epilepsy.

  • Hamed’s work goes into detail about antiepileptic medication and the role it plays; how it functions in regards to the illness. This is a very important source because it includes information solely about epileptic medication. With this information, we get a better understanding of how effective it is. Once again, providing us with more basic information in order to be able to take the research to the next level and be able to compare its effects on mood as well; based off the other sources gather that talk mainly about mood.
