Authors: Robert Plonsey, Roger C. Barr
In the first edition of Bioelectricity, Plonsey and Barr provided an introduction to electrophysiology following a
quantitative approach. In this second edition they address new discoveries in the field of ion channels. The text is an introduction to electrophysiology utilizing a quantitative approach. It describes the principles of electrical fields,
using basic principles from science and engineering while taking the biological applications into consideration. The book thus provides an introduction to the quantitative description of underlying electrophysiology with illustrative application to cardiac electrophysiology and
functional electrical stimulation. The book can be used as a bridge…
Begins with the necessary physics and vector calculus.Steps logically and clearly through the physics of diffusing ions in solution separated by membranes. Presents classic Hodgkin-Huxley formulation… This book is next only to "From Neuron to Brain" to understand Neuroscience Basics. It covers a bunch of other topics other than Neuroscience. Worth a reading!
