Once thought to be unimportant in central nervous system activity, epinephrine is now known to play a key role in the brain's regulation of blood pressure, cardiovascular function, and other autonomic activities. This book is a comprehensive account of the morphology, genetics, pharmacology, and electrophysiology of epinephrine in the central nervous system, and its effects on behaviour and autonomic function. Students and research workers in neurology, psychiatry, and pharmacology.
