Reviews

From the reviews: This is an excellent up-to-date reference and text about the cortical connectivity and physiology of the olfactory system in experimental animals. The piriform, and olfactory cortices with limbic and midbrain connections are beautifully illustrated with color line drawings and explanatory discussions. ... I recommend this book to any research interested in olfactory neurophysiology. (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, June, 2014)
