The Physiology of Excitable Cells

'This book provides a good overview of the subject matter. It includes discussion of a number of historically important experiments and data from a wide variety of species that will be of special interest to students and those seeking a broader context for recent advances in our knowledge of this subject. The numerous diagrams are clear, and often serve to clarify concepts presented in the text. The author's writing style is excellent - he has attained that delicate balance between including sufficient detail to interest knowledgeable readers, while maintaining exceptional clarity so that the book can be comprehended by those new to the field.' Quarterly Review of Biology ...surely the best currently available text on excitable cells... Quarterly Journal of Experimental Physiology I enjoyed this book immensely and believe that it can be used comfortably by students, as a reference for experts, and as a tool for the interested nonexpert investigator. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Physiology ...it is indeed remarkable that a single author can now review current knowledge of so wide a field in the detail Aidley does here. Nerve and Muscle This fourth edition, as we might expect, emphasizes molecular techniques and includes much new material. Our knowledge continues to develop concerning the physiology of nerves, muscles, and sensory cells, and this book is an excellent survey of the field. Molecular Reproduction and Development
