We have already seen how signals are propagated within a neuron, from its dendrites and cell body to its axonal terminals. With this chapter, we begin to consider the signaling between neurons through the process of synaptic transmission. Synaptic transmission is fundamental to the neural functions we consider in this book, such as perception, voluntary movement, and learning.
