The Central Nervous System of Vertebrates: Spinal Cord and DeuterencephalonKarger Medical and Scientific Publishers, 1975 M01 1 - 1006 pages In 1927, Hartwig Kuhlenbeck published a series of lectures on the central nervous system of vertebrates and gave neurobiology its standard reference for decades. The present work, now complete in 5 volumes, represents a monumental expansion of the early lectures. |
