This revised and updated neuroanatomy text gives students in medical and other health programs an understanding of the functional organization of the nervous system and indicates how injury and disease can result in neurological deficits. The book prepares students to interpret many symptoms and signs presented by a neurological patient, so that a correct diagnosis and/or appropriate treatment plan can be made. New to the Fifth Edition is a completely reorganized content integrating structure with function in a systems based format, and a reduction in length due to the presentation of structures with pathways.

Review:
Doody's Book Review -- "This is an excellent book that should be part of neurological, neurosurgical, and general medical libraries. Its usefulness goes well beyond tests and can remain as a solid reference in neuroanatomy for students and professionals alike...One of the most important features is the CD-ROM that allows readers to ask themselves questions that will rarely remain unanswered by the excellent writing, exuberant pictures, and immediate correlation found in this book."
