Product Description
Synopsis
This book has become a classic in its field, with its main feature still the outstanding illustrative material: 217 halftone and line drawings that in themselves justify the term "classic". The text of this third edition has been thoroughly revised and extended. For example, it contains a new section on the cerebrovascular system and the meninges. More attention has also been placed on the functional significance of the structures that are discussed and depicted, and numerous correlations with neuropathology and clinical neurology are indicated. This edition provides a straightforward, clear and reliable guide to the structural and functional organization of the human central nervous system. Designed primarily for students of medicine and psychology, it also provides informative reading for practising neurobiologists. Moreover, it has proved useful as an aide memoire for specialists in the neurological sciences.

5.0 out of 5 stars The definitive atlas if you are serious about the human CNS, 8 Feb 2000
No other atlas gives more detail or clearer three dimensional renditions of the CNS. Although ageing somewhat (it is a 1988 edition), anatomy has not changed too radically and the book has an organised layout with sections on Gross Anatomy; Vessels & Meninges; Brain slices; Microscopical Sections and Functional Systems. The accompanying text is detailed but heavy going. This is not a book that you can wade through without a more explanatory text as a companion. However, the book excels by virtue of the sheer beauty and accuracy of its drawings. A well thumbed tome is a must on the shelves of anyone remotely interested in the anatomy of the human CNS.
