Now fully revised and updated, this leading ICT series volume offers concise, superbly illustrated coverage of neuroanatomy, that throughout makes clear the relevance of the anatomy to the practice of modern clinical neurology. Building on the success of previous editions, Neuroanatomy ICT, sixth edition has been fine-tuned to meet the needs of today’s medical students – and will also prove invaluable to the range of other students and professionals who need a clear, current understanding of this important area. Generations of readers have come to appreciate the straightforward explanations of complex concepts that students often find difficult, with minimum assumptions made of prior knowledge of the subject. This (print) edition comes with the complete, enhanced eBook – including BONUS figures and self-assessment material – to provide an even richer learning experience and easy anytime, anywhere access! Notoriously difficult concepts made clear in straightforward and concise text Level of detail carefully judged to facilitate understanding of the fundamental neuroanatomical principles and the workings of the nervous system, providing a sound basis for the diagnosis and treatment of contemporary neurological disorders Clinical material and topic summaries fully updated and highlighted in succinct boxes within the text Memorable pictorial summaries of symptoms associated with the main clinical syndromes Over 150 new or revised drawings and photographs further improve clarity and reflect the latest imaging techniques New expanded coverage of neuropsychological disorders and their relationship to neuroanatomy – increasingly important given aging populations Access to the complete, enhanced eBook – including additional images and self-assessment material to aid revision and check your understanding.

This new edition is a comprehensive guide to the anatomy of the nervous system, for undergraduate medical students. Beginning with a general introduction to neuroanatomy, the following chapters each cover a different section, from the spinal cord, brainstem and cranial nerves, to the limbic system, autonomous nervous system, and much more. Each chapter features key learning objectives, clinical anatomy, and short notes, as well as multiple choice questions for self-assessment. Anatomical aspects of neurological conditions are illustrated in colour boxes and clinical cases have been added to each topic. The text is highly illustrated with clinical images including high resolution brain specimen photographs.

This textbook is designed to help medical students learn, understand and remember the essentials of this notoriously awkward subject. The text is broken up by eye-catching clinical points and summary boxes, features that demonstrate the relevance of the subject to medical practice and aid rapid learning and revision. The book also reproduces and labels full colour coronal (ie, vertical, front to back) and horizontal sections of the brain, allowing the student to learn and understand the subject without having to buy a separate atlas.

Newly revised and updated, A Textbook of Neuroanatomy, Second Edition is a concise text designed to help students easily master the anatomy and basic physiology of the nervous system. Accessible and clear, the book highlights interrelationships between systems, structures, and the rest of the body as the chapters move through the various regions of the brain. Building on the solid foundation of the first edition, A Textbook of Neuroanatomy now includes two new chapters on the brainstem and reflexes, as well as dozens of new micrographs illustrating key structures. Throughout the book the clinical relevance of the material is emphasized through clinical cases, questions, and follow-up discussions in each chapter, motivating students to learn the information. A companion website is also available, featuring study aids and artwork from the book as PowerPoint slides. A Textbook of Neuroanatomy, Second Edition is an invaluable resource for students of general, clinical and behavioral neuroscience and neuroanatomy.
