This book, published in 2003 as NASA Special Publication, NASA SP-2003-535, describes the experiments conducted on the Neurolab module which was flown on the Space Shuttle during the STS-90 mission and the subsequent results. The Neurolab module is essentially a Spacelab module which had flown 15 times on the Space Shuttle. This Spacelab mission focused specifically on the effects of microgravity on the nervous system, the understanding of the mechanisms responsible for neurological and behavioral changes in space. The book also includes technical reports on the procedures and equipment developed for the flight and perspectives of the crewmembers.
It is important to note that while this book is still in print (as of 3/2007) and can be purchased directly from the Government Printing Office. Regardless, many excellent quality used copies of this book in hardback are available cost between $25 -50.
