This book brings together contributions from key investigators in the area of pathological pain. It covers the molecular basis of receptors and channels involved in nociception, the possible messages that cause neuropathic plasticity, spinal plasticity in neuropathy, plastic changes in opioid systems in neuropathy and opioid tolerance, and plastic changes related to pathological pain.

Derek J. Chadwick and Jamie A. Goode are editors for Pathological Pain: From Molecular to Clinical Aspects and other scientific titles.
