Fantastic book. -- Boris 19:34, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

there are conflicting dates for the release of the fifth edition —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.219.202.95 (talk) 03:16, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm really pleased to see this article - it was very easy to discover which edition/year I was about to buy secondhand. Skylarken (talk) 04:43, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just emailed customer service. March 24, 2010 is the new release date for the 5th ed.

Yeah, except that they have been moving the new release date for years now. When I was a neuroscience freshman Amazon had the new release date for the fifth edition down for April 2006. Since then they've been moving it every few months. So, I'm skeptical as to whether/when there will be a fifth edition. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.24.78.240 (talk) 18:25, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the first time looked for the book it was said that the release date would be in Septembre 2005. 131.220.133.204 (talk) 08:34, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

this book may be wonderful in its completion and everything, but it also has information on only about 91.2% of the pages included. Considering that this book is 1414 pages (not including the table of contents and all of the additional information they put before the first section which amounts to about 52 pages). I think it is terrible that people use this as a required textbook for an undergrad class. Because it is NOT a textbook. It is an ENCYCLOPEDIA, by several sources definition of the word. No, it is not alpha-ordered but it contains much of the documented knowledge of the biological aspects of neuroscience. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.172.52.211 (talk) 03:47, 9 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a valid style reason why the citations for the fifth and sixth editions of the book include a date after the third author rather than at the end of the list of authors? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stencil3 (talkcontribs) 18:57, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mistake?

"Jessell, became an editor of the book starting from the sixth edition, he is a professor of biochemistry and molecular biophysics at Columbia University."

Sixth edition? But there are only four of them! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Quajafrie (talkcontribs) 19:05, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
