From the reviews: "The book gives a broad and simultaneously deep insight in different fields of neurodegeneration and neuroprotection. The chapters are clearly structured and comprehensive without being overloaded. Many clear tables and figures help to illustrate the important issues. ... it is very suitable for advanced students of the biomedical field, physicians as well as basic scientists. ... provides an excellent basis for database searches to get to the most recent results on selected topics."
