"The most unique feature of this book is the detail in which the molecular methods are described. Each author has provided detailed information about his or her methodology, including equipment and reagents used. The book is divided into four large sections: genetics, molecular pathogenetic studies, molecular studies of the basal ganglia, and molecular therapies. . .This is a fairly unique ...
