Rezensionen

The book is very well written, is illustrated by 70 high quality figures, a subject index and more than a thousand literary references. It is a valuable treatise on the subject of mechanoreceptors and will be found of indispensible assistance as a source of up-to-date information for both experimentalists and clinicians involved in this field of research. - Physiological Research; ...an essential source of contemporary information on the development and maintenance of histologically distinct mechanoreceptors in skin and muscle. - Journal of Anatomy; When asked to comment on scientific publications, one usually finds something to criticise. The monograph by Zelena is a rare exception which can only be recommended highly to all colleagues interested in neurobiology, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, development, degeneration and regeneration of the peripherous nervous system. Actually, anybody involved in morphological reserach or teaching morphology should read this book. - Annals of Anatomy
