A valuable compendium of comprehensive and up-to-date reviews of neuronal molecular biology by leading researchers in the field, this book focuses on genetic and molecular analysis, and on the present state of knowledge on molecular biology phenomena in neurons. The contributors describe all aspects of neuron structure and function, including ion channels, receptors, signaling properties, synapse biology, and the genes and molecules involved in the development, maintenance, diseases and death of neurons. The inheritance and expression of neuronal genes are also described, with particular emphasis on their relation to human disease. This book is essential reading for clinical and systems neuroscientists, and a valuable reference source for all molecular neurobiologists.

From the reviews:
“The Audio-Visual Encyclopedia is a concept created by Toshisada Nishida and his colleagues with the objective of providing video footage for ‘an exhaustive listing of behavioral patterns’. ... The ambitious format that he and his colleagues have pioneered in Chimpanzee Behavior in the Wild will be enormously stimulating to researchers on chimpanzees, students of primate behavior in general, and theorists about human evolution, and it provides a resource for teaching that no primatologist will want to miss.”ญญญ (Richard Wrangham, Primates, Vol. 52, 2011)
“This book is the first systematic attempt to comprehensively describe chimpanzee behaviour and document it by use of audio-visual material ... . this volume has to be very strongly recommended to anyone interested in chimpanzee behaviour. This book is a landmark in documenting what we know about the chimpanzee ethogram to date, and will be of considerable use to not only chimpologists, but all primatologists, animal behaviourists, anthropologists, zoo-keepers, teachers, students, and perhaps inform those working on the next Planet of the Apes sequel too!” (Anna Roberts, Primate Eye, February, 2012)
