Molecular Pain 本书特色

Molecular Pain is the first book to focus on molecular and synaptic
mechanisms for pain transmission, modulation and plasticity. Unlike
traditional textbooks about pain, this book covers recent progress in
neuroscience and relates these developments to the basic mechanisms of
chronic pain. The book also discusses current pain medicine and alternative
pain treatments such as acupuncture.
Edited by a leading neuroscientist and pain researcher, Molecular Pain
includes contributions by more than thirty international science experts
from eight different countries. The book's thirty-four chapters cover a wide
spectrum of pain, analgesia, and neuroscience, and present chronic pain as a
major health concern and a dynamic area of research.
Complete with 165 illustrations, Molecular Pain is a concise and
comprehensive review of recent progress in the field of pain. This book
is an invaluable reference work and textbook for advanced undergraduate
students, graduate and medical students, and researchers in neuroscience,
pain, animal behavior, anesthesiology and medicine.

Pharmacology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, USA. He gradu-
ated from the University of W'tirzburg and obtained a M.S. in
Computer Science at the University at Albany, State University
