Synopsis
Up-to-date third edition which presents a coherant description of the nervous system from the perspective of modern work on molecular biology, cellular and developmental biology, biophysics, neurophysiology, neurochemistry and neuroanatomy. The scope of the book has been broadened with entirely new chapters on the biophysics and molecular biology of membrane channels, indirect mechanisms of synaptic transmission, the cellular and molecular biology of synaptic transmission, nervous system development, sensory receptors and systems, and motor systems. To accommodate this new information other subjects have been abbreviated or ammalgamated. Permeating the book are new concepts derived from experiments at the molecular level. Techniques such as patch clamping, gene cloning and expression, the use of monoclonal antibodies, and site-directed mutagenesis not only deepen but often simplify the presentation of topics related to signaling, synapse transmission, plasticity and development.

From Neuron to Brain: A Cellular Approach to the Function of the Nervous System
Seller: Bookbot, Prague, Czech Republic
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Softcover. Condition: Fair. Unterschrift / Widmung ohne Bezug; Wasserschaden / Verschmutzung; Leichte Risse; Geknickte Ecken. In the 25 years since its initial publication, the authors have consistently aimed to explain how nerve cells transmit signals, integrate them, and give rise to higher functions. The new Fourth Edition retains this focus but has been completely reformatted and updated. Emphasizing experiments and their execution, the authors narrate the journey from the inception of ideas to current research. The challenge of incorporating a wealth of new facts, techniques, and concepts has led to the omission of some classical experiments. Responding to reader feedback, the format has been enhanced with more headings, shorter paragraphs, and clarified full-color illustrations. As in previous editions, references are cited throughout, and appendices are included to assist readers unfamiliar with the nervous system. This edition is designed for upper-level undergraduate, graduate, psychology, and medical school Neuroscience courses, appealing to anyone interested in the nervous system, regardless of their background in biological sciences. It offers a coherent and accessible account of how cellular and molecular approaches can illuminate brain function. Seller Inventory # 3318ea84-dfe5-4282-82fe-4ba0256943b7
