Advances in synaptic plasticity / edited by Michel Baudry, Joel L. Davis and Richard F. Thompson.

Many neurons exhibit plasticity; that is, they can change structurally or functionally, often in a lasting way. Plasticity is evident in such diverse phenomena as learning and memory, brain development, drug tolerance, sprouting of axon terminals after a brain lesion, and various cellular forms of a...
