About this book
Reviews
From the book reviews:
“This is the single best current reference on signal transduction mechanisms in gliomas … . The book is geared for biochemists, neurophysiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, students, and research fellows working on brain tumors from the point of view on diagnosis, pathophysiology, invasion, metastases, and potential molecular therapies of promise.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, July, 2014)
