Riassunto

This insightful and comprehensive book covers nearly every aspect of glutamate receptor structure and function for the working researcher and student. It condenses two previous landmark volumes into one easily accessible volume, and covers the extraordinary research and significant developments in the decade since the previous books were published. This includes the central role glutamate receptors play in neurotransmission.

Recensione:

From the reviews:

"This is intended as a comprehensive primer for scientists and students studying the glutamate receptors. ... The book provides a good working knowledge of these receptors for all potential neuroscientist readers. ... it likely will best serve as a review for active researchers in the field of neuroscience. ... this book provides a timely update reflecting significant progress in the research in this field. ... an excellent resource for reviews on the neurobiology of individual receptor systems." (Kenneth E. McCarson, Doody’s Review Service, June, 2007)
