Synopsis:

Neuroscience is a comprehensive textbook created primarily for medical and premedical students it emphasizes the structure of the nervous system, the correlation of structure and function, and the structure/function relationships particularly pertinent to the practice of medicine.

It could serve equally well as a text for medical students or for undergraduate neuroscience courses in which many of the students are premeds. Being both comprehensive and authoritative, it is also appropriate for graduate and professional use.

Major changes to the new edition also include: Additional neuroanatomical content, including two appendices: (1) The Brainstem and Cranial Nerves and (2) Vascular Supply, Meninges and Ventricles.
