[FUN_Mail] text book for applied neurobiology lab

[Dr. James Murray Ph.D.]

I am teaching a lab-based course called Applied Neurobiology next quarter, and the course will involved recording from crayfish, cockroach, and snail, with some EEG on ourselves to boot.  I plan to require “Neurons in Action”, but don’t want to require a comprehensive textbook due to the expense, and the fact that I won’t cover most of the content therein.  NIA is great, but I think some students might want something that is more readable rather than a lab manual.  I like Matthews Cellular Physiology of Nerve and Muscle, and used copies are only $30.  Any other suggestions?  thanks
