Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Explains how the brain functions, both in normal and abnormal states. Includes discussions on the anatomy, with emphasis on neural tracks and functional neural interconnections among the various parts of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system. In addition, special sections on membrane potentials, their generation by the neuronal membrane, and other neural mechanisms are discussed, as well as the basic physiology of each portion of the nervous system and subsystem, including vision, somatic sensation, and motor control of muscles. Plus, neuroscience of many illustrative clinical problems of the nervous sytem is presented.

Reseña del editor:

This work explains how the brain functions in normal and abnormal states. It emphasizes the neural tracks and functional neural interconnections among parts of the central peripheral nervous system and explains the biophysics of nerve cell function. It also features synoptic transmission and functional circuits, pain processes, motor function and the visual system. Full-colour drawings illustrate the total gross anatomy of the nervous system.
