Abstract
In this discussion of the problems, philosophy, ethics, and techniques of neurochemical research with children, I will describe only enough of the research in which I have been involved to illustrate various points. Those who wish a more complete description may consult the references at the end of the chapter (Arnold et al., 1972, 1973; Corson et al.,1972; Knopp et al.,1973).
