Portals takes advantage of its modular format to give both the simplified version of a topic and a glimpse of its deeper foundations. Thus each chapter gives a simplified overview followed by detailed step-by-step elucidation of intricate concepts. This strategy which has been uniformly followed is specially discernable in the chapters on Resting Membrane Potential and Conduction of Nerve Impulses. Several common misconceptions have been specifically addressed e.g. the role of Na+-K+ pump in membrane potential effect of hyperkalemia on membrane potential ephaptic conduction across neurons and effect of temperature on muscle twitch. The discussion on compound action potential has been shifted to its proper context of electroneurography and students have been introduced to the elementary concepts of electromyography and some disorders of muscle contraction and relaxation. The chapter on the history of nerve & muscle physiology should delight postgraduate students of physiology.
