Synopsis

The synapse not only provides a bridge from one nerve cell to the next; its function can be modified by experience, making it important for learning and memory. This overview of the synapse provides a review of current concepts in neurobiology, with specific reference to synaptic plasticity, neurotransmission and neurotrophism. These areas have been advanced dramatically by the application of molecular biology techniques and, The Synapse provides a much needed synthesis of these advances. Kuno incorporates all the latest thinking and current research together with a brief historical overview of research in the field, providing an invaluable text for both the student and the researcher.

Revue de presse

This nicely written book presents a comprehensive summary of neurobiological concepts on synapses, their function, and some specific patterns. It is a valuable addition to the libraries of neuroresearchers and graduate students and may serve as a reference source about synapses. Biological and medical libraries should perhaps have multiple copies of this book because it will eventually become essential reading for neuroscience courses. (Konstantin V. Slavin, University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine, Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal, 1995)

No attempt is made to be all inclusive in scope or detail, rather a thoughtful glimpse is provided to stimulate our thinking on future research. The author has succeeded in bringing together evidence from multidisciplinary approaches to the study of the synapse with the aim of communication, summarization, and provoking comment. (Douglas E. Brenneman, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Journal of Chemical Neuroanatomy 12 (1997))
