Neurodegeneration and Prion Disease
This volume provides an in-depth overview from world experts on prion disease. These fatal diseases include Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, chronic wasting disease in deer, scrapie of sheep, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (mad cow's disease) of cattle and related diseases. Understanding what cause...
