Ideal for any student of neuroanatomy, neuroscience, or neuroradiology, Netter's Atlas of Neuroscience, 4th Edition, is a highly visual, clinically oriented exploration of structure and function-from neurons and motor and sensory systems to global neural functions and disorders. This award-winning text approaches this complex topic from three perspectives: Integrated Neuroscience Overview, Regional Approach, and Systems Context. Illustrations by Frank H. Netter, MD, and others working in his tradition are framed by concise, expert text and accompanied by neuroimaging and photomicrographs. Combines didactic Netter and Netter-like illustrations with succinct text and clinical points, delivering the essential information students need for both clinical and basic science programs including medical neuroscience courses. Integrates basic mechanisms and neural foundations which underlie neurologic disorders and their treatment. Presents neuroscience from three distinct perspectives, enabling students to review complex concepts and functions in different contexts. Provides an overview of the basic features of the spinal cord, brain, and peripheral nervous system, the vasculature, meninges and cerebrospinal fluid, and basic development. Highlights cross-sectional brain stem anatomy and side-by-side comparisons of both axial and coronal brain sections with corresponding CTs and MRIs. Focuses on the foundational concepts as well as clinical correlations and relevance. Reviews Global Neural Functions and Disorders in a brand new chapter with 16 art plates. Includes many new art plates covering current topics such as addiction, endogenous opioid and cannabinoid systems, dementias including Alzheimer's Disease, neural aging, consciousness and coma, sleep regulation, genetic models, neurogenesis, and neuropsychiatric disorders including PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Prior editions have been recognized with awards and honors from the British Medical Association, Association of Medical Illustrators, and others. Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.
