Overview

"""Mammalian Neuroendocrinology"" presents a concise examination of how the nervous and endocrine systems interact to regulate physiological processes. Selected experimental results are presented to illustrate the current understanding of neuroendocrine processes. Neural influences and endocrine feedback mechanisms related to the secretion of adenohypophysial hormones are summarized for each hormone. Other topics covered include: current concepts of anterior pituitary control; neuroendocrine regulation of individual anterior pituitary hormones; the pineal gland; the adrenal medulla, hormones and behaviour; and neuroendocrine immunology."
