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.
