The Fine Structure of the Nervous System: Neurons and Their Supporting Cells Hardcover - 1991

by Alan Peters; Sanford L. Palay; Henry Def Webster


From the publisher

This book represents the most complete and authoritative description on the fine structure of the nervous system available in a single volume. Beginning with background material on the neuron, the book then examines specific portions of the nerve cell, and of the various supporting cells.
Structure is first described in a general fashion, followed by detailed coverage of the fine structure of each component, with full discussion of how the structural features relate to their functions. Extensively revised and rewritten, this book will bring readers up to date with the many important
developments that have taken place since publication of the previous edition. It includes over 130 electron micrographs and line drawings, many of which are new to this edition.

From the rear cover

Since the last edition was published there has been not only an information explosion in neuroscience, but also a notable improvement in microtomes and electron microscopes, so that the production of good electron micrographs poses less of a challenge than it did even a decade ago.We hope that in this version of the book we have succeeded in correlating structure and function and in providing a reference source of electron micrographs and literature, in which both experience neuroscientists and students interested in the fine structure of the nervous system can find information beyond the scope of their immediate interests.
