Basic Neurochemistry: Principles of Molecular, Cellular, and Medical Neurobiology, the outstanding and comprehensive classic text on neurochemistry, is now newly updated and revised in its Eighth Edition. For more than forty years, this text has been the worldwide standard for information on the biochemistry of the nervous system, serving as a resource for postgraduate trainees and teachers in neurology, psychiatry, and basic neuroscience, as well as for medical, graduate, and postgraduate students and instructors in the neurosciences. The text has evolved, as intended, with the science. It is also an excellent source of current information on basic biochemical and cellular processes in brain function and neurological diseases for continuing medical education and qualifying examinations. This text continues to be the standard reference and textbook for exploring the translational nature of neuroscience, bringing basic and clinical neuroscience together in one authoritative volume. Our book title reflects the expanded attention to these links between neurochemistry and neurologic disease.

This new edition continues to cover the basics of neurochemistry as in the earlier editions, along with expanded and additional coverage of new research from: Intracellular trafficking; Stem cells, adult neurogenesis, regeneration; Lipid messengers; Expanded coverage of all major neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders; Neurochemistry of addiction; Neurochemistry of pain; Neurochemistry of hearing and balance; Neurobiology of learning and memory; Sleep; Myelin structure, development, and disease; Autism; and Neuroimmunology.



The new edition features:

* Completely updated text with new authors and material, and many entirely new chapters * Over 400 fully revised figures in splendid color * 61 chapters covering the range of cellular, molecular and medical neuroscience * Translational science boxes emphasizing the connections between basic and clinical neuroscience * Companion website at http://elsevierdirect.com/companions/9780123749475

I'm a clinician but still retain my fascination for basic sciences and advances.
I find this book to be a great review of ever-expanding concepts and clarifications of what we know and once knew.

Great improvement form last edition with on-line link to slides and pictures for teaching and presentations.

I hope the future reviews will continue to expand on clinical-correlates (though this is as the name implies not really a primary medical book) of basic sciences and translational research and applications.

Though it lacks in detail in several areas the bibliographies/reference page at the end of the the chapters were/are helpful in leading to further reading. Ofcourse when one gains more knowledge in individual chapters-like neurochemicals/transmitters the material here does seem very basic. However in keeping in perspective the amout of research and data behind each chapter, one has to realize that a whole book can be written on each chapter in the book. Thus this may not be all encompassing but definitely a great book to have and channel into more (guided) detail from.

I am currently doing honours in neuroscience and I look up information in this book on a regular basis it has good subheadings making it easy to read, multiple diagrams in each chapter and references at the end of each chapter. Particularly good for myelination (my honours project).But no real glossary just the abbreviations
