The Axon
The axon, interposed between the cell body and the synaptic terminals in most neurons, plays a crucial role in connecting neurons and acting as a conduit for the transmission of information between them. This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date compendium that brings together chapterson the structure, function, and pathophysiology of axons in both the PNS and CNS. Carefully written, well-illustrated with superb illustrations, and generously referenced, the 33 chapters and introduction have been authored by 49 world-renowned authorities. Recent advances in the molecularneurobiology of axons are carefully reviewed, and new areas, such as the molecular biology of ion channels and myelination, the role of calcium in pathophysiology and regeneration, cell adhesion molecules and their roles in axo-glial interactions and axonal guidance, and optical recording methods,are highlighted. This book will provide an essential reference for neuroscientists as well as clinicians such as neurologists, neurosurgeons, and clinical electrophysiologists interested in axons.

Squid as Experimental Animals
A greatly expanded revision of the Woods Hole standard of 1974, A guide to the laboratory use of the squid... The original eight lab manual chapters are supplemented by eight that serve as an introduction to squid biology. Subjects include natural history and husbandry, mating and embryology, neural membranes, cell biology, sensory systems, the squid's unique detoxifying enzyme. Physiology of the CNS, digestion and excretion are excluded. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Neuroscience
This book will be of interest to anyone who wishes to know what role mathematics can play in attempting to comprehend the dynamics of the human brain. It also aims to serve as a general introduction to neuromathematics. The book gives the reader a qualitative understanding and working knowledge of useful mathematical applications to the field of neuroscience. The book is readable by those who have little knowledge of mathematics for neuroscience but are committed to begin acquiring such knowledge.
Development and Regeneration of the Nervous System
This authoritative volume brings together chapters by international experts on key issues in developmental neurobiology. A central theme is the way in which current work on the trophic and cellular interactions that regulate the growth and guidance of regenerating nerves offers hope for the neurologically damaged patient.

Axon Degeneration
This book is a collection of classical as well as innovative methods used to investigate axon degeneration with a particular focus on addressing the common challenges encountered while performing these procedures. Particular attention is devoted to the study of axon loss in several model organisms, as each poses unique challenges and provides powerful advantages. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and practical, Axon Degeneration: Methods and Protocols is an ideal guide for facilitating the application and further development of these protocols, which will help the scientific community tackle important questions regarding axon degeneration. Chapters 2, 3, and 20 are available Open Access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
From Molecules to Networks
An understanding of the nervous system at virtually any level of analysis requires an understanding of its basic building block, the neuron. This book provides the solid foundation of the morphological, biochemical, and biophysical properties of nerve cells that is needed by advanced undergraduates and graduate students, as well as researchers in need of a thorough reference.* Highly referenced for readers to pursue topics of interest in greater detail* Unique coverage of the application of mathematical modeling and simulation approaches not found in other textbooks* Richly illustrated, four color presentation throughout* Includes CD-ROM of all of the illustrations
