Now fully revised and updated, this leading ICT series volume offers a concise yet comprehensive account of the structure and function of the human nervous system. Trusted by generations of readers and now in its seventh edition, it remains internationally popular as the most succinct, clinically relevant and uniquely illustrated textbook available on the subject.
Carefully targeted to bridge the gap between a brief overview on the one hand and an extensive text on the other, this book provides a clear account of neuroanatomical principles. It describes normal structure and function and clinically relevant dysfunction, all related to conditions which students will encounter in clinical practice.
This book will make learning easy for medical students, junior doctors and specialist trainees needing a sound understanding of the basics of neuroanatomy which underpin the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders.
