Reviews

This volume, edited by a world-known muscular and written by an international panel of experts, contains 14 chapters dealing with all relevant aspects of disorders of neuromuscular junction. All chapters are clearly written, extensive and instructive, with many subheadings, schemes and figures, providing an excellent and up-to-date overview of the disorders related to neuromuscular junction. Together with extensive reference lists at the end of each chapter, this volume represents an excellent documentation of the state-of-the-art in this complicated and rapidly progressing field of basic and clinical neurosciences.<br><br> K.A.
