Publisher Synopsis
The editors have assembled another superb group of autonomic neuroscientists akin to those who contributed to the first edition that was published 20 years ago. The text is written from the perspective of the contributing basic scientist in each of the fields covered. Indeed, while the text limits itself short of a full exploration of central autonomic control, a great deal is covered...For the topics that are covered, the text would be a very fine addition to thelibrary of the basic autonomic neuroscientist. The autonomic clinician would find the lovely basic scientific reviews of centrally regulated autonomic function a complement to other texts that cover pathophysiologic. * William T.
