Progress in Neuropathology

Abstract

Fifteen chapters comprise this third volume of<i>Progress in Neuropathology</i>. Most of these stress pathogenesis of disease from the morphological viewpoint although several chapters present histochemical and enzymatic data, an innovative step beyond the first two volumes, which are prefaced by Dr Zimmerman. All of these chapters should be welcome to the teachers and researchers of human neurological disease. Chapters that respectively discuss such subjects as the origin of brain macrophages, the lesions of the "dying-back" neuropathies, the morphological changes of cells infected with measles virus, experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, neuronal storage diseases, and the neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinoses all accomplish an effective up-to-date summary of their subject and provide us with a work-able bibliography. Many of these and other chapters amalgamate and summarize their subjects for the first time. Most of the work presented is slanted toward the authors' research, which is to be expected as these authors were obviously chosen
