Nervous System Actions and Interactions: Concepts in Neurophysiology

Description

The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. It is referred to as "central" because it combines information from the entire body and coordinates activity across the whole organism. This book reflects the new information as well as the understanding of student needs for critical thinking, and contains the systematic, in-depth coverage of topics of great clinical interest. This book seamlessly integrates data from all fields of neuroscience as well as clinical neurology and psychology. This reference book presents the functional properties of clinically-relevant disorders by incorporating data from molecular biology to clinical neurology. This is the perfect reference for medical, graduate, and undergraduate students alike.
