Neural plasticity and Disorders of nervous system.

Neural Plasticity and Disorders of the Nervous System provides comprehensive
coverage of the pathophysiology of neurological disorders emphasizing those
disorders where expression of plasticity is evident. Including the basis for the
expression of neural plasticity; how reorganization of the nervous system can
cause hyperactivity in sensory systems producing central neuropathic pain,
tinnitus and paresthesia; the role of little-known non-classical pathways in
pain and sensory disorders and their subcortical connections; hyper- and
hypoactivity of motor systems after injury, and the role of spinal reflexes and
internal processing in the spinal cord. Phantom symptoms and disorders of
nerves and associated disorders are discussed, along with disorders that can be
cured by microvascular decompression operations. A detailed and
comprehensive description of the organization of pain circuits and sensory and
motor nervous systems is also included. Neural Plasticity and Disorders of the
Nervous System is aimed at students and graduates of neuroscience and
medicine.
