Going beyond step-by-step descriptions of how to perform techniques,
Methods of Neuroendocrinology
examines the questions being asked in the field, including the problems needing to be solved and the limits of interpretation. The experimental approaches described here merge endocrine and neuroscientific research and offer an insight into the many disciplines involved. Much more than a "cookbook", this is a resource for every researcher who wants to pursue new areas of inquiry in the science of neuroendocrinology.
