Description

Expert neuroscientists and pharmacologists comprehensively survey the most significant currently active areas of dopamine receptor research. Their authoritative, comprehensive chapters review all the areas of highest current interest, ranging from the molecular structure of dopamine receptors to their functions in the brain and pituitary. Their powerful critical synthesis opens the door to a better understanding of all the exciting new areas of research, from molecular neuroscience, to psychiatric research, to the role of dopamine and dopamine receptors in learning and memory.
