| Summary |
"This new 29th edition provides an accessible, easy-to-remember synopsis of neuroanatomy and its functional and clinical implications. A Box summarizes the most essential take-away lessons from each chapter. Since many of us learn and remember better when material is presented visually, this book is liberally illustrated not only with clinical material such as brain scans and pathological specimens but also with hundreds of diagrams and tables that are designed to be clear and memorable. The diagrams, which have been refined over 29 editions, are uniquely explicative and clear, and the Appendices provide unique tools for the clinician."--Preface |
