Reviews / Votes
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 01-JAN-06 -- "A concise yet comprehensive text of neuroanatomy and basic neuroscience that is appropriate for medical students, residents, and neuroscience graduate students. The illustrations are a highlight of this text. These are appropriately detailed but make simple, important points to complement the text. The color illustrations help illustrate neuroanatomic pathways and key anatomic relationships well. In addition, clinical correlations, clinical cases, and the glossary make this an excellent text for teaching beginning students in the neurosciences. Recommended for medical students, residents, neuroscience graduate students, and course directors of basic neuroanatomy and neurosciences."-Mayo Clinic Proceedings (Overall Grading: Five Stars; Outstanding)More details
