Metabolism in the Nervous System

Metabolism in the Nervous System edited by Abel Lajtha.

This volume is concerned with metabolic reactions occurring in the nervous system. Some time ago, it was thought that since most of the intermediary metabolism that can be observed in the brain is not specific to this organ, there is little justification in studying neural metabolism as such.
