Reviews

...gives a state-of-the-art in the field (and) points out the needs of future research.-Trends in Pharmacological Sciences Review

This book is an excellent review of the molecular biology, pharmacology, anatomical distribution, and physiological and pathological roles of metabotrophic glutamate receptors. It provides a substantial support for the knowledge of metabotrophic glutamate receptor role in brain function and pathology. The editors have done an excellent job in choosing the contributing authors; each one is a major figure in the specific area he or she is presenting...recommended...-Neurological Research

...not only gives a state-of-the-art in the field but also points out the needs of future research thereby becomes of interest to scientists working both with metabotropic glutamate receptors and with receptors in general.-FEBS Letters
