Towards the neurobiology of chronic pain /

This excellent volume provides a well-balanced review of activity-dependent modifications of synaptic efficacy which follow noxious events, and is based on the symposium "Towards the Neurobiology of Chronic Pain", organized in Siena, at the Certosa di Pontignano, on March 4-5, 1994 was mad...
