Produktbeschreibung

The Neuroscience of Parkinson's Disease (two volume set) provides a single source of material covering different scientific domains of neuropathology underlying this condition. The book covers a wide range of subjects and unravels the complex relationships between genetics, molecular biology, pharmaceutical chemistry, neurobiology, imaging, assessments, and treatment regimens. The book also fills a much-needed gap as a "one-stop" synopsis of everything to do with the neurology and neuroscience related to Parkinson's disease-from chemicals and cells to individuals. It is an invaluable resource for neuroscientists, neurologists, and anyone in the field.

• Offers the most comprehensive coverage of a broad range of topics related to Parkinson's disease
• Serves as a foundational collection for neuroscientists and neurologists on the biology of disease and brain dysfunction
• Contains in each chapter an abstract, key facts, mini dictionary of terms, and summary points to aid in understanding
• Features preclinical and clinical studies to help researchers map out key areas for research and further clinical recommendations
• Serves as a "one-stop" source for everything you need to know about Parkinson's disease
