Omschrijving

Neurophysiology: The Working Nervous System

This comprehensive textbook provides an in-depth understanding of the human nervous system, from the microscopic structure of neurons to the complex networks responsible for movement, sensation, memory, and higher brain functions. Written in a clear, systematic style, it is designed for students of medicine, BAMS, nursing, pharmacy, and allied health sciences, bridging foundational physiology with clinical relevance.

Highlights of Contents

Foundations of Neurophysiology
– Organization and classification of the nervous system
– Neurons, glial cells, nerve fibers, and myelination
– Properties of nerve fibers and mechanisms of conduction Neurotransmission & Synapses
– Neurotransmitters and neuromodulators
– Neuromuscular transmission and clinical disorders
– Synaptic mechanisms, EPSPs, IPSPs, inhibition, plasticity Reflexes & Applied Neurophysiology
– Reflex arc and types of reflexes
– Stretch, tendon, superficial and postural reflexes
– Clinical relevance of abnormal reflexes Cerebral Cortex & Higher Functions
– Functional areas of the brain (motor, sensory, association)
– EEG and electrical activity of the brain
– Learning, memory, speech, emotion, and sleep Diencephalon, Basal Ganglia & Limbic System
