Cell Biology of the Axon

Cell Biology of the Axon edited by Edward Koenig.

Recent years have witnessed striking advances in research on axons at a cellular level that substantially impact our current understanding of axonal biology. Newer findings and their ramifications are critically reviewed in the 16 chapters of this volume by authors highly qualified by virtue of thei...
