Inhoud
Neuroendocrinology is the study of how the nervous system controls hormonal secretion by endocrine glands, and in turn how hormones control the brain. Our most basic bodily functions – sex, reproduction, growth, stress, aggression, metabolism, and feeding – are all triggered and controlled by neuroendocrine systems. There are extensive interactions between the central nervous, neuroendocrine and immune systems, and neuroendocrinology is pivotal to physiology and medical research as well as to clinical practice and biological psychiatry. Dysfunction in this area leads to serious disorders such as infertility, impotence, disorders of puberty, defective or excessive growth, obesity and anorexia, Cushing’s Syndrome, Addison’s Disease, hypo/hyperthyroidism, major depression and PTSD. This volume presents findings from the world experts in the discipline and chapters deal with both theory and research. The basic principles of neuroendocrinology, neural regulation, hormone/brain function and behavior, and neuroendocrine pathology are all addressed in full. Chapters are heavily illustrated in color to most functionally elucidate the principles being discussed, and each will feature "How do we know?" callout sections which highlight the foundation of major concepts via figures, diagrams and key points. In this complex and dynamic field it is a struggle for investigators, students and clinicians to continually integrate the latest scientific and clinical information. No single-volume reference work currently exists which brings all the relevant topics together in one place, and readers must currently amass numerous volumes to obtain information that this single work will provide. Edited and authored by the leading international minds in this discipline, Neuroendocrinology will be to this community what the Williams Textbook of Endocrinology (now in it’s 11th edition, Saunders) is for basic endocrinologists – an invaluable reference with significant legacy potential.

In welke staat is je boek?
Een belangrijke factor van een tweedehands boek is de staat van het boek. De koper mag niet voor verrassingen komen te staan. Vermeld steeds duidelijke beschadigingen of gebreken. We gebruiken een systeem met 3 sterren:
Het boek is acceptabel: je hebt het noest gebruikt om te leren en notities en markeringen aangebracht – maar alles is nog leesbaar. De kaft en pagina’s zijn in goede staat.
Het boek ziet er nog goed uit: er staan enkele notities in en je hebt er in gemarkeerd. Er zijn nauwelijks gebruikssporen aan de kaft en pagina’s.
Het boek is (zo goed als) nieuw: je hebt er niet in geschreven en niet gemarkeerd. Er zijn geen gebruikssporen aan de kaft en pagina’s.
