In spite of the clinical emphasis implied by the title (Recent Advances in Clinical Neurophysiology), the papers are heavily weighted towards experimental neurophysiology. The volume includes three symposia. The first reports morphological, electrophysiological, and pharmacological investigations of the spinal cord, principally in animals. The second is a somewhat heterogenous group of presentations broadly labeled, "Neurophysiological Investigations of Brain Diseases." Two minisymposia can be discerned within this chapter: dealing with EEG in relationship to cerebral blood flow and reports of microelectrode recordings in man. The third symposium, "EEG in Stress," serves to broaden one's concept of stress. The list includes such conditions and stimuli as high temperatures, low temperatures, high noise levels, sensory deprivations, copulation, hepatic coma, and others. It would be difficult to glean unifying concepts from this symposium.
