This double volume provides a systematic account of the anatomy, physiology, neurochemistry, molecular biology and behavioural pharmacology of dopamine in the CNS. HEP 154/II deals with functional and behavioural aspects as the electrophysiology of dopamine neurons and of dopamine actions, the interaction w. other transmitters and its role in behaviour and in the action of centrally acting drugs.
