"The illustrations are outstanding....The photomicrographs of nerves arethe best that I have seen....The chapters are heavily referenced, with almostall having citations of articles from 1994 and even, in a chapter or two, 1995.This is unusual and remarkable. The authors have produced an encyclopedicreference book with materail that is almost as up-to-date as a journalarticle....Waxman, Kocsis and Stys have edited an excellent reference volumethat is up-to-date and extremely well illustrated. This is the sort of bookthat should be a standard in neurology and neurosurgery department librariesregardless of academic orientation. For departments of ophthamology andotolaryngology, this book is also a must."--Journal of the American MedicalAssociation, "The Axon: Structure, Function and Pathophysiology is an excellent addition to the field of axon physiology and pathophysiology.

Synopsis
This book provides a comprehensive and up to date compendium that brings together contributions on the structure, function and pathophysiology of axons in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. Authoritative and superbly illustrated, the 33 chapters and introduction have been authored by 49 world-renowned authorities. New areas, such as the molecular biology of ion channels and of 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. A generously referenced book which will provide essential reference to those working in this field., 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 chapters on 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 molecular neurobiology 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., This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date compendium that brings together chapters on the structure, function and pathophysiology of axons in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. Within the context of a comprehensive discussion of all aspects of axonal structure, function and pathophysiology, recent advances in the molecular neurobiology of axons are carefully reviewed.
