Cajal and de Castro's Neurohistological Methods

Autor Miguel A. Merchan, Javier DeFelipe, Fernando de Castro
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 apr 2016
Cajal and De Castro's Neurohistological Methods provides the first English translation of Fernando de Castro's 1933 publication Elementos de Tcnica Microgrfica del Sistema Nervioso. A student of the famed founder of modern neuroscience, with Santiago Ramon y Cajal also serving as the
Editor of the original text, Fernando de Castro recorded all the various protocols that had been used in his laboratory by his students in order to provide a manual of histological procedures specifically designed for the fine structure of the nervous system. This renowned text is virtually unknown
in its original form outside the Spanish-speaking world.

In a text that reads like a mix between a recipe book and an alchemical manuscript, authors Miguel Merchan, Javier DeFelipe, and Fernando de Castro (descendant of the 1933 publication's author) put the new translation into historical context. This book is also beautifully illustrated with plates of
histological techniques, provides a quick guide to new vocabulary, and the author's notes on the translated text. This pivotal work of classic neurohistological techniques is a wonderful addition to the Cajal library.

Recenzii

The published translation now reviews the "recipes" that forever changed the study of the nervous system. Thanks to the work of Merchán, de Castro and DeFelipe, the histological procedures that allowed the identification of neurons are now available worldwide.
