From the reviews:

"This is intended as a comprehensive primer for scientists and students studying the glutamate receptors. … The book provides a good working knowledge of these receptors for all potential neuroscientist readers. … it likely will best serve as a review for active researchers in the field of neuroscience. … this book provides a timely update reflecting significant progress in the research in this field. … an excellent resource for reviews on the neurobiology of individual receptor systems."

A deliciously satisfying read.&rdquo; &mdash;Chicago Tribune &ldquo;Shapiro approaches her subject like a surgeon, analytical tools sharpened. The result is a collection of essays that are tough, elegant and fresh.&rdquo; &mdash;Washington Post &ldquo;A delectable and sometimes spicy dish on some intriguing women and their sustenance of choice.&rdquo;&mdash;The Plain Dealer &ldquo;Fascinating.&rdquo; &mdash;Moira Hodgson, Wall Street Journal  &ldquo;A collection of deft portraits in which food supplies an added facet to the whole . . .&#160;What She Ate redeems the whole sentimental, self-indulgent genre of food writing.&rdquo; &mdash;Slate  &ldquo;Delectable . . .
