In the vast, rock-strewn, roadless wilderness between the United States and Canada, there is no need for a fence or armed patrols to protect the boundary between countries. But the frigid lakes, rushing rivers, bug-infested swamps, wolves, bears and moose don't deter four terrorists hell-bent on bringing jihad to their sworn enemy in a manner so diabolical, none will suspect it until it is too late. Before the Mall of America becomes the Chernobyl of the Midwest, FBI agent Brian Setty and a cast of disparate individuals will collide and decide the fate of thousands.Boundary is the first book in Kevin Woodward's International Border trilogy.

Neurotransmitters are usually considered to be endogenous substances that are released from neurons, act on receptor sites that are typically present on membranes of postsynaptic cells and produce a functional change in the properties of the target cell. They are essential features of the nervous systems of all animals, and numerous chemicals can act as neurotransmitters either intentionally (e.g. pesticides) or unintentionally (neurotoxins). The most common forms of neurotoxicity are the death of neurons, degeneration of axons, damage to glial cells and interference with the axonal membrane or neurotransmission. Important neurotoxins are found among pesticides, metals, solvents, natural substances, and industrial chemicals. Environmental chemicals may also contribute to the pathology of neurodevelopmental, neuropsychiatric, and neurodegenerative disorders. Neurotransmitters and Toxicology will be particularly appealing to toxicologists interested in neurotoxicology in various sub-disciplines and neuro-chemists interested in pathology and disease mechanisms associated with neurotoxicants.
