Neurons are arguably the most complex of all cells. From the
action of these cells comes movement, thought and
consciousness. In the six years since the first edition of
Molecular Biology of the Neuron there has been an explosion
in the molecular information about neurons that has been
discovered, and this information is incorporated into this
second edition. Written by leading researchers in the field,
the book provides an essential overview of the molecular
structure and function of neurons, and will be an invaluable
tool to students and researchers alike.
