Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book brings together research authorities in the field of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) to share their laboratory methods and protocols for molecular and model systems and outcome research in the field of neurodegenerative biomedical research. … The audience includes all laboratory scientists interested in molecular and neuroscience research that seeks a cause and cure for these two devastating disorders. … The book is thoughtfully written and will have the greatest appeal for those with a familiarity with laboratory research methods.” (Charlene Hoffman Snyder, Doody’s Review Service, February, 2011)
“This is a collection of relatively modern methodologies, focused primarily on the study of amyloid-β processing … . Research technicians will find the ‘notes’ sections particularly valuable … . provides a nice reference for anyone interested in studying putative models of Alzheimer’s disease. … Overall, the book is well organized, well written, appropriately succinct, and exceedingly useful in those areas that are addressed, and provides a valuable reference to the basic scientist studying Alzheimer’s disease.” (Rudy J. Castellani, Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, Vol. 25, 2011)
