Advances in Vagal Afferent Neurobiology cover

Taking a comprehensive approach in which all aspects of the vagal afferent system are considered, from the terminals in the visceral tissues to the neural pathways within the central nervous system, this extensive text reviews the development, neurochemistry, anatomy, biophysics, pharmacology, and physiology of the vagal afferent nerves. The authors present experimental techniques used to investigate the development, morphology, electrophysiology and reflex function of the vagal afferent nerves, and include state-of-the-art reviews of vagal afferent neurobiology by some of the world's leading experts in these fields.

"Over all, this book is well written and widely considers the most outstanding research in the vagal afferent neurobiology. Therefore, I recommend his reading to those involved in related fields which needs to understand the vagal afferent neurobiology, since it provides useful information for clinic and basic scientists, as well as for biomedical students." - Rosario Pasaro, Journal of Chemical Neuroanatomy, Feb. 2009, Vol. 37
