This revision benefits from the contribution of new author, Dr Stephen Waxman, Chairman of the Department of Neurology at Yale. Easy-to-understand, yet comprehensive, this edition presents an overview of neuroanatomy together with a synopsis of its functional implications and discussions of its clinical relevance. A new chapter, "Introduction to Clinical Thinking", has been added and the remaining chapters revised and updated. New diagrams and colour have been added giving students a clear picture of neuroanatomy. All case studies have been updated.
