Publisher's Synopsis
Published by Sinauer Associates, an imprint of Oxford University Press. Stephen W. Kuffler was the most dominant figure in experimental neuroscience in the 1960s and '70s. The lessons he taught by example about how to do research and how to interact with one's students and colleagues transcend specific disciplines and are timeless. This volume consists of letters by Steve's former students and colleagues and a biography by the noted biophysicist Sir Bernard Katz. Altogether, they demonstrate the views, achievements, and versatility of this extraordinary scientist, teacher, and friend.
