Preface

Neuroscience is a rapidly expanding endeavor devoted to unraveling the structure and function of the nervoussystem. It relies on, and keeps close relations to, a number of other disciplines, such as mathematics, physics,chemistry, engineering, computer science, genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, medicine and philosophy.Indeed, many of its recent successes result from the application of ideas, concepts andmethods borrowed from thesefields. Thus, neuroscience has become the archetype for interdisciplinary undertakings. This convergence ofinfluences accounts for part of its enormous attractiveness and fascination to students, researchers and lay personsfrom various walks of life or science. Many of neuroscience’s most creative and productive investigators have beenlured into the field not only by the excitement inherent in the possibility of uncovering the secrets of the humanmind, but by the appeal of venturing into a vast unknown land, requiring the development of new tools for itseffective cultivation. Far from simply satisfying our intellectual curiosity, however, neuroscience has become evermore important as a theoretical ground for practical applications in medicine, in particular neurology, and otherdisciplines.

The explosion of neuroscience has made it virtually impossible for individuals to follow all the ramifications andfast developments in the many corners and branches of this science. This Encyclopedia has therefore been designedfor a wide variety of readers, from members of the lay public to students, practitioners and researchers in biology,medicine, psychology, sociology, philosophy and their associated auxiliary fields. Moreover, it should also proveuseful to advanced researchers of biology and neuroscience who wish to stay abreast of current developmentsoutside their immediate areas of expertise.

In the interest of rapid and convenient access to information, this Encyclopedia has adopted a new format. Theentire complex of neuroscience has been divided into 38 subject fields organized and surveyed by associated FieldEditors. Entries, which are in alphabetical order for rapid localization, are of three type: (1) simple and relativelybrief definitions and explanations (glossary entries), (2) structured “essays” of a few pages to provide coherenttreatments of particularly important topics, and (3) synopses written by the Field Editors as larger overviews of theirfields with links to the essays in their field. Extensive cross-references to definitions and essays serve to lead thereader to additional sources of information.

This Encyclopedia is available as a print version (5 volumes, more than 4,500 pages, 6,500 entries and 1,000illustrations), an eReference version (online version), and as a bundle (print plus online) version.

Thanks are due to a vast number of people who have made this ambitious endeavor possible. First and foremost, weare extremely grateful to our 46 Field Editors who accepted the arduous challenge of organizing their fields,soliciting essays and glossary terms from expert authors, editing the submitted texts, and finally writing their ownsynopses. Second, many thanks also go to our nearly 1,000 authors who wrote essays and glossary terms. Third,Drs. Thomas Mager, Natasja Sheriff, Michaela Bilic and Jana Simniok of Springer-Verlag investigated mucheffort, initiative, patience and enthusiasm (at times interrupted by outbursts of frustration) into initiating,administering, pushing ahead and keeping alive this project. Many thanks are due to the numerous unnamed supportstaff in the background: secretaries, copy editors, computer and graphics specialists at Springer.
