Synopsis

The third edition of this comprehensive textbook covers the entire subject of neurophisiology, from membrane channels and the conduction of nerve impulses to the higher psychological functions of the brain. Throughout the text, emphasis is placed on function as well as on the cellular mechanisms of individual neurons. Using this approach the author gives us an understanding of the complex systems that make up the brain and their interactions.
This throroughly revised and updated edition features extended use of supplementary notes and increased coverage of aspects of molecular and celluar neurobiology relevant to the subject matter. A major innovation is the inclusion of a complimentary NeuroLab for Windows disc that can be used to try out the experiments and demonstrations in the book through interactive exercises.Neurophysiology is essential reading for pre-clinical medical students and students of physiology, zoology, neuroscience, neurology, and psychiatry.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The third edition of this highly successful textbook covers the entire subject, from the conduction of nerve impulses to the higher psychological functions of the brain. Throughout the text, emphasis is placed on function rather then mechanism, that is, what neurophysiological systems do rather than how they do it. Using this approach the author gives an understanding of whole systems and their interactions.
The text has been thoroughly revised and has increased coverage of molecular neurobiology and a more extensive use of supplementary notes. Also included is a free PC-based Neurolab disc which the reader can use to try out experiments and demonstrations themselves. This illustrates important points in the text which are indicated by a computer icon.
'Neurophysiology' will be essential reading for all those studying for postgraduate examinations in neurology, neurosurgery or psychiatry, as well as for preclinical medical students and students of applied biology, physiology and zoology.
