The book "Monoaminergic Modulation of Cortical Excitability" offers a comprehensive analysis of the complex modulatory mechanisms of dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin in the cerebral cortex. It is divided into several sections that present a variety of perspectives on how the monoamine systems influence cortical function, starting from cellular and subcellular levels to systemic aspects. The authors discuss the complexity of these interactions and reference current data that demonstrate how disturbances in these systems can significantly impair memory formation and information processing in the cortex. This specialized book is aimed at professionals and students in the fields of medicine and nursing who seek a deeper understanding of the neurobiological foundations of cortical excitability.
