Canning, Brendan J.editor.
Spina, Domenico.editor.
Provides a comprehensive and contemporary review of the biology of sensory nerves. This book places an emphasis on the actions of drugs, transmitters and autacoids that initiate or inhibit sensory nerve activation or modulate the release or actions of the transmitters released from the central terminals of sensory nerves.
