It has been almost forty years since Norman G. Bowery discovered and named this non-GABA A receptor the GABA B receptor. It has been almost ten years since the last comprehensive book presentation focused on GABA B receptors.

The main goal of this book is to provide the field with a contemporary and comprehensive perspective on the GABA B receptor, its physiological relevance, and its therapeutic potential. The volume is organized into introductory and special interest sections presented by experts who study the GABA B receptor from structural, signaling, pharmacologic, physiological, pathophysiological, and therapeutic perspectives.

The book aims to appeal to a broad spectrum of biomedical and clinical scientists - any scholars with an interest in GABA B receptor. The editors hope readers find this work to be thought-provoking, instructive, and informative.

Provides readers with a comprehensive perspective on the GABA-B receptor and its therapeutic potential Reflects the state-of-the-art in GABA-B receptor neurobiology through preclinical and clinical research studies Enriches the understanding of the important role of GABA-B receptors in nervous system function and behavior
