AB The  central  nervous  system  includes  the  brain  and  the  spinal  cord;  the  remainder  belongs  to  the  peripheral  nervous  system.  The  peripheral  nervous  system  consists  of  two  components:  the  somatic  nervous  system,  which  predominantly  controls  skeletal  muscle  (e.g.,  the  “outer  world”),  and  the  autonomic  nervous  system,  which  predominantly  controls  smooth  muscle,  glands,  and  cardiac  muscle  (e.g.,  the  “inner  world”).1  The  autonomic  nervous  system  mainly  includes  sympathetic  division  (the  so-called  “fight-or-flight”  response)  and  parasympathetic  division  (the  “rest-and-digest”  response).
