Garland Science Physiology of Neurons - Neuroscience Textbook

Gain a deep understanding of nerve cell function with Physiology of Neurons by Garland Science. This text explores how the brain's complexity emerges from the communication and interaction between billions of elements. By combining insights from molecular biology and cellular imaging with traditional electrophysiology, this book provides a modern perspective on how nerve cells and their synaptic interconnections operate. Readers will explore the systematic details of neuronal physiology through a didactic approach. The content covers essential topics including membrane biophysics, receptor physiology, and sensory transduction. You will also study synaptic transmission and its selective pharmacology. This book is designed to equip readers with the foundational knowledge needed to understand the fundamental biological processes that drive neural communication.
