Carpenter's Neurophysiology Reviews

'This book allows readers to craft a strong foundation of the principles of neurophysiology and rely upon this framework for lifelong application of this subject. [...] This edition is a worthy successor to its predecessors, and a commendable contribution to the neuroscience canon in its own right.'
