From the Publisher:

     Afifi and Bergman's FUNCTIONAL NEUROANATOMY provides the principles of neuroanatomy that you'll find in a core textbook along with a bounty of superb illustrations typically found in a stand-alone atlas.  Together text and illustrations seamlessly integrate basic scientific principles with their clinical correlations in vivid detail.

     HIGHLIGHTS OF THIS REVISED AND EXPANDED NEW EDITION INCLUDE:

  • Four new chapters, two on reticular formation, wakefulness, and sleep; clinical correlates; and one each on control of posture and movement; and approach to a patient with a neurological disorder

  • Over 400 images including line illustrations, radiographs in all modalities, and clinical photographs

  • Atlas views of cross-sectional anatomy of the brain and brain stem, Yakovlev brain sections in three planes, spinal cord, brain stem, cerebellum, basal ganglia, and cerebral cortex.

  • Unique chapters describe the clinical functional relevance of key anatomical regions including spinal cord, brain stem, cerebellum, basal ganglia, and cerebral cortex

  • Separate chapters are devoted to Neurohistology, Special Senses, Central Nervous System Development, Cerebral Circulation, and Cerebrospinal Fluid

  • Clinical Correlation chapters follow each of the functional anatomy chapters to illustrate the clinical relevance of anatomical structures

  • Key Concepts in each chapter for quick review

  • Terminology sections at the end of the chapter define neuroanatomical terms for rapid mastery of vocabulary and eponyms for historical perspective

  • Suggested readings at the end of each chapter provide a gateway to further study

     Get the benefit of two books...a text and an atlas... in this one easy-to-use, convenient resource.  Review the functional importance of neuroanatomy in the presentation of disease states and take a visual tour that makes the subject unmistakably clear.
