Editorial Reviews

Review
"For the most part, the editors have successfully attempted the art of the primer... And among this book's 83 contributors, limited to up to six pages each, there is something for every taste... this is one slim book that one hopes will fatten with time and have many lives."
--TRENDS IN NEUROSCIENCE -- Review

Book Description
An up-to-date review of the basic and clinical autonomic neuroscience knowledge intended for students, researchers and physicians. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Primer -- a good starting point, May 24, 2000
By A Customer
This book provieds an excellent overview of the autonomic nervous system and the disorders that can have a devestating impact on those who suffer from dysautonomia. The book provides a breakdown of the disorders into subcatagories and provides good reference materials as well as contact information for each of the authors.
