"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

Organized classically by system, this popular text gives medical and health professions students a complete, clinically oriented introduction to neuroanatomy. Each chapter begins with clear objectives, includes clinical cases, and ends with clinical notes, clinical problem-solving, and review questions. Hundreds of full-color illustrations, diagnostic images, and color photographs enhance the text. This Seventh Edition features new information relating the different parts of the skull to the brain areas, expanded coverage of brain development and neuroplasticity, and updated information on stem cell research. A companion Website includes the fully searchable text and 454 USMLE-style review questions with answers and explanations.

Snell’s Clinical Neuroanatomy, Eighth Edition, equips medical and health professions students with a complete, clinically oriented understanding of neuroanatomy. Organized classically by system, this revised edition reflects the latest clinical approaches to neuroanatomy structures and reinforces concepts with enhanced, illustrations, diagnostic images, and surface anatomy photographs. Each chapter begins with clear objectives and a clinical case for a practical introduction to key concepts. Throughout the text, Clinical Notes highlight important clinical considerations.Chapters end with bulleted key concepts, along with clinical problem solving cases and review questions that test students’ comprehension and ensure preparation for clinical application.

This text provides students with the basic knowledge of neuroanatomy needed to practise medicine. Each chapter starts with a neurological case history which sets the scene. This is then followed by a chapter outline for quick access to material, and chapter objectives to focus the student on the most important material in that chapter.

The First South Asian Edition of Snell's Clinical Neuroanatomy has been revised primarily as per the new competency-basedcurriculum recommended by the Medical Council of India. This globally admired text provides an understanding of clinically orientedneuroanatomy comprehensively for medical students and health professionals. Salient Features of South Asian Edition: Content has been structured as per the new competency-based curriculum. Keeping the essence of the text, chapters have been revised methodically. Anatomy relating the different parts of the skull to brainareas is included in Chapter 1. Chapter objectives and clinical cases emphasize the practical application. Updated Clinical Notes highlight important clinical considerations for quick reference and review. Revised bulleted Key Concepts in each chapter ensure a focused clinically relevant elucidation of neuroanatomy. Clinical Problem Solving and Chapter Review Questions equip students for the challenges encountered in clinical practice. Enhanced color illustrations and new photographs and tables have been incorporated to facilitate understanding of the fundamentalconcepts and neuroanatomical structures. Frequently Asked Questions have been added at the end of each chapter considering professional examination of various universities. In addition to the existing “Color Atlas of Brain,” “Atlas of Noteworthy Diagnostic Images” has also been added to bridge the gapbetween basic neuroanatomical concepts and clinical application. A comprehensive Question bank, including over 450 questions, is provided online.
