This is the latest edition of the world's leading textbook of neuropathology. Building on the many changes introduced in the acclaimed 6th edition, the 2 volume 7th edition continues to provide the definitive account of neuropathology - encompassing all aspects from perinatal and developmental, through the major diseases including tumours to degeneration and dementia. Coverage of the subject combines descriptive morphology with molecular biology, genetics, protein chemistry and pathophysiology.
This new edition ensures that 'Greenfield's' is up-to-date with the rapidly changing field of brain development and disease.
For the first time, Greenfield's is accompanied by a CD ROM. Greenfield's Neuropathology Illustrated contains all the images from the book plus a sprinkling of additional top quality figures which can be easily printed or downloaded into presentations - an invaluable resource for departments and individual lecturers.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
As a practising neuropathologist, you cannot do without the new edition of Greenfields's Neuropathology
Brain Pathology
A work that can be recommended without reservation
British Journal of Neurosurgery
A true monument of neuropathology...actually the best existing in world literature.
Molecular Biology
How does one do justice to such a book?...in brief it is brilliant.
Journal of Clinical Pathology
The present edition is a magnificent piece of work, an absolute gem and unreservedly recommended to all modern neuroclinicians, pathologists and medical students alike.
Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery
Given the very high standard of the 6th edition, the present edition miraculously manages to surpass that achievement. The result is a comprehensive text of the very highest quality, covering the entire field. In summary this is a wonderful book...it provides such a wealth of new information that it is an essential reference for all neuropathologists - and indeed should be strongly recommended to all working in the field of neurosciences.
Royal College of Pathologists
The contributors have brought together neurobiology, neuropathology, clinical and basic neuroscience to produce a two-volume book that will provide invaluable reference information for the many of us involved in this exciting discipline. I congratulate the contributors and recommend this book without hesitation.
ACP News (Association of Clinical Pathologists)
There is no doubt that the new 'Greenfield' is magnificent: the radical changes introduced over two editions have both restored the book's pre-eminence in the field and made it a truly international enterprise.
Histopathology
...the classic descriptive morphology for which Greenfield's is renown is well maintained....all chapters are written with clarity and style, comprehensively illustrated, and lavishly referenced.
The book is a must for practicing and trainee pathologists, but is equally compelling for workers in other clinical neuroscience disciplines and basic researchers interested in the roots of the dysfunctional nervous system. Possession of the 7th edition is guaranteed lasting quality and full value.
