Abstract
|
:
|
A unique text, relating the dramatic advances of modern neurobiology to the understanding of the structure and function of the autonomic nervous system. Written by an international group of distinguished scientists, it provides a clear view of the central neuronal components involved in autonomic control. Its scope is wide, ranging from anatomical pathways and molecular pharmacology to the perceptual qualities of autonomic sensation and their potential in modifying behaviour. The approach is mildly didactic, and combines concise background information with discussion of the latest research findings. It is richly illustrated with line drawings that concisely summarize concepts presented in the text.
