This long-awaited second edition has been systematically revised and updated. Aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as researchers, the book unravels the complex mechanisms that determine how the brain and peripheral nervous system regulate bodily functions, and how this normal functioning can change with disease or injury.

Wilfrid Jänig is Professor Emeritus of Physiology at the Christian-Albrechts University in Kiel, Germany. He has conducted neurobiological research on the autonomic nervous system since 1973. He combined research in Kiel with research at universities in Australia (Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney), at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and at the University of California, San Francisco. His experiments, in which electrical signals in single sympathetic nerve fibers were recorded during natural and reflex activity, have established the principle of selective control of peripheral organs by the brain and the involvement of the sympathetic nervous system in various types of pain and in inflammation.
