چکیده
The Denervated Muscle, a book written by Ernest Gutmann and collaborators, was published 1962 and at that time, represented an excellent summary of the existing knowledge on nervemuscle interactions [9]. In addition, the book contained a large amount of novel results identifying Gutmann's laboratory as a major research center for work on muscle denervation, atrophy, and neurotrophic effects. For those not familiar with this book, it is still worthwhile to scan the table of contents. As reflected by the titles of the twelve chapters and their authors, the book illustrates the vast scope of a group of morphologists, muscle physiologists, neurophysiologists, and biochemists working together under the guiding spirit of an extraordinary personality, Ernest Gutmann.
