Roche Encyclopedia of Medicine

What is God's name is the "Roche Encyclopedia of Medicine"? If I search it on Google all I get is this wikipedia page (not the discussion page, but the article) and other non-related things. I can't find evidence that this book exists anywhere...and if it does then it seems like it only contains one article on "neuropil" and nothing else, which isn't very much like an encyclopedia. If anyone could provide a link to it's existence I would appreciate it very much. MikeEnnen (talk) 04:56, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Trying

Trying for NPOV rewrite of an article that takes an advocacy position (and is written in the first person singular). It would be nice to know what, if anything, neurology has to say on this subject. Vicki Rosenzweig

Sorry but what does 'feltwork' mean? 194.83.140.31 12:41, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite

I am puzzled by the article, which is unfocused, incoherent, and unspecific. I want to point out these sentences:

Neurons are the cells that perform the actual processing of information. Glial cells have 'supporting' functions in a very loose sense of the word.

Hmmm. Yes, this is indeed loose. Glial functions are involved in feedback processing (e.g. in the olfactory bulb from the olfactory cortex) and have possibly some filter function, implemented by their dendrites touching mitral and tufted cell dendrites (dendro-dendritic processing). About "actual processing" there is to say that there is a lot of literature about synaptic processing, "actual" processing in synapses.

I suggest to rewrite the whole article. Ben ^T/_C 14:31, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Image ideas?

What might be a good image for here? Anyone to contact? --Bcjordan (talk) 23:33, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Roche Encyclopedia of Medicine - Clue/Answer

Hi Mike

maybe the author was referring to the German "Roche Lexikon Medizin". Here is the link to the article: http://www.gesundheit.de/lexika/medizin-lexikon/neuropilus.
