This book is about the role of cholecystokinin (CCK) in the neurobiology of anxiety and panic attacks. An up-to-date review of the topic is given in a multidisciplinary perspective ranging from neurochemistry to human behavior. This volume is equally informative to basic and clinical scientists.

Cell-Cycle Mechanisms and Neuronal Cell Death examines the role of cell cycle activation in the molecular mechanisms leading to neuronal degeneration. This book serves to gain new insights into the molecular determinants of neuronal death and to establish new targets for therapeutic intervention.

Although such in formation of precise connections between the host and the grafted embryonic tissue is still lacking in the spinal cord, there is much information on the re sponse of the host nervous system to the grafted embryonic tissue, and that of the graft to its new host environment.

An illusion of auditory space can be generated by the appropriate filtering of sounds presented over headphones: the so-called virtual auditory space (VAS). The first part is fairly introductory in nature, while the second examines a number of issues relating to the generation of high fidelity virtual auditory space.

Heat shock proteins are involved in many physiological processes, including development and differentiation, organisation of the cytoarchitecture by binding to cytoskeletal elements, and regulation of the balance between cell death and survival. This book addresses the role of heat shock proteins and cellular stress responses in the brain.

Some general aspects of opiate dependence are described in a first section including a brief historical description and an explanation of the different models currently used to investigate opiate dependence.

The 21st century will witness the unprecedented marketing of therapeutic drugs developed from cannabinoids and the endocannabinoid system. Cannabinoids is a timely volume, which represents a comprehensive review of the most important issues in cannabinoid research as well as those of most likely therapeutic relevance.
