Editorial Reviews: Product Description THIS EDITION HAS BEEN REPLACED BY A NEWER EDITION

Customer Reviews: Good intro to the depth and details of neurosci April 3, 2000 2 out of 2 found this review helpful I've hung on to this book after taking the course (a neurosci course for advanced undergrads and a few grad students). It's attractive because it goes into depth without becoming murky for a beginner. Once you've mastered introductory neurosci topics and want to roll up your sleeves for the details, this is a great book to pick up. pPart One is Cellular Neuroscience, with chapters on cells, synapses, methods of probing the brain, action potentials and their propagation, membrane channels and receptor proteins, etc. pPart Two is Integrative Neuroscience, covering invertbrate nervous systems, rhythmic motor behavior, retinal processing of info, higher levels of visual processing, invertebrate models of memory and learning, etc.pExcellent schematic drawings. Clear explanatory writing.
