SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The role of electrical signalling in the control of endocrine secretions by the brain has been clear for many years. This volume concentrates on the relation between these two fields and asks how electrical action potentials facilitate secretion of substances from nerve cells which control endocrine events.
