Features that make Clinical Neuroanatomy perfect for board review or as a clinical refresher: Discussion of the latest advances in molecular and cellular biology in the context of neuroanatomy Clinical correlations to help you interpret and remember essential neuroanatomic concepts in terms of function and clinical application Numerous computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of the normal brain and spinal cord; functional magnetic resonance images that provide a noninvasive window on brain function; and neuroimaging studies that illustrate common pathological entities that affect the nervous system An Introduction to Clinical Thinking section that puts neuroanatomy in a unique clinical perspective Numerous tables that make the information clear and easy to remember A complete practice exam to test your knowledge Coverage of the basic structure and function of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves as well as clinical presentations of disease processes involving specific structures NEW full-color illustrations

"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
