This book is about a hot debate that has divided the community of temperature physiologists for the last fifteen years: the question of human selective brain cooling. It is well accepted that in hyperthermic animals the brain is kept at a lower temperature than the rest of the body, a function called "selective brain cooling."

This book takes a firm stand in favor of human selective brain cooling.
