Review
Useful not only to the novice but to virtually any investigator interested in cellular neurobiology. It certainly should be examined by individuals who teach neuroscience-related courses. (Science)
The authors focus on the best-understood mechanisms of electrical modulation, namely those in which the properties of membrane ion channels are modified by second messenger systems...While only a decade or so ago the brain was considered too complicated to be studied effectively at the molecular level, the biochemical basis of neuromodulation in the mammalian brain now stands at the frontier of research...This volume provides an effective introduction to the study of neuromodulation and is appropriate as a text for graduate courses. (Cell)
An absolutely first class treatise...Can be warmly recommended to graduate students in the neurosciences for its clarity and lucidity. (Quarterly Review of Biology)
The first chapter of [this book] is devoted to a definition and description of what is meant by the term neuromodulation: "The ability of neurons to alter their electrical properties in response to intracellular changes resulting from synaptic or hormonal stimulation." In the opinion of the reviewer this is a very good restriction, as it appears that this field of cellular neurobiology shows exciting developments....A very good book for general neurobiologists to get quickly acquainted with the newly emerging insights into the mechanisms which neurons use, to change their excitability level. In addition it provides the specialist with an opportunity to broaden his outlook in the field of neurobiology. (Journal of the Neurological Sciences)
