This collection of papers is presented to Sir JOHN ECCLES by his
former and present collaborators to commemorate the award of the
1963 Nobel Prize in Medicine, which was shared with A. L. HODGKIN
and A. F. HUXLEY. Sir JOHN'S interest in, and influence on, the
study of physiology, particularly that of the nervous system, is
reflected by the range of topics discussed, and by the distri
bution of the various authors in laboratories throughout the world.
Those who have been privileged to work with him in Oxford, Sydney,
Dunedin or Canberra have enjoyed a good discipline in scientific
thought, as well as in the use of neurophysiological techniques.
Basic knowledge is always transferable, and the inspiration which
comes from association with a great scientist is not confined to
anyone field of physiology. The contributors to this volume were
requested to review briefly that aspect of physiology of current
interest to them, and it is hoped that the resulting papers will
serve as an up to date review of many physiological problems. The
editors are greatly indebted to the publishers, Springer-Verlag,
particu larly to Dr. H. GOTZE for his advice and interest. It is
also a pleasure to thank Mrs. H. WALSH for her unfailing assistance
during the preparation of this book. Canberra Melbourne 1965. III
CONTENTS Rhythmic thalamic activity. P. Andersen."
In Volume 1 of this series, attention was focused on neuropoisons
of animal origin. In the present volume, attention has been shifted
to poisons of plant origin. In both cases, we have attempted to
identify those poisons for which there is a large measure of
clinical or research interest. Our efforts in compiling the series
have been aided by three groups of individuals. First, we are
grateful to the investigators who contributed chapters. Their
labors are the substance of this two-volume work. Second, we are
pleased to acknowledge the support of Mr. Seymour Weingarten and
Plenum Press in our project. And third, we have been immeasurably
aided by our assistants, Mrs. Ruby Hough in New York City and Mrs.
Helena Walsh in Canberra. To all these persons, we are indebted.
