Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Neurotransmitter Receptors
Sam J. Enna · 1980
38/100
👎 Skip It
A serious 1980 scientific reference for neuropharmacologists that was valuable in its day, but decades of neuroscience advances have substantially superseded the content. The catalog classification as Children's is a clear metadata error. Outside a specialist historical research context, there is no practical reason to seek this out.
✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
⚠ Parent note — our reviewers flagged: metadata error: classified as Children's but is a postgraduate biomedical reference text — no age-appropriate content for children. We still scored it 38; these are context for your family, not an automatic skip.
