Fundamental Neuroscience
Second Edition
Duane E. Haines, Ph.D.
Most neuroscience textbooks emphasize neurophysiology over neuroanatomical structures and relationships. FUNDAMENTAL NEUROSCIENCE, Second Edition, offers you balanced coverage of both areas – in a richly illustrated source specifically oriented toward applications for clinical medicine!
This book thoroughly explores cellular biology, neuron structure and function, vascular anatomy, nuronal communication, and the embryologic development of the nervous system. What’s more, in-depth discussions of human regional neuroanatomy and systems neurobiology provide a rich understanding of the function of the human brain and spinal cord.
Inside this fully updated Second Edition, you’ll find…
* An even stronger focus on clinical implications,
* A NEW chapter on cranial nerves,
* A NEW chapter on the neurologic examinations,
* And meticulous updates throughout to reflect all of the latest developments in the field!
Abundant, full-color illustrations, plus clinical and histologic photographs, make nuroanatomy easy for you to visualize. And numerous diagnostic imaging examples – including outstanding magnetic resonance imaging studies – provide radiologic correlations for various neuroanatomical structures.
Based primarily on data obtained from human studies, rather than animal ones, FUNDAMENTAL NEUROSCIENCE, Second Edition equips you with all the clinically focused information you need to know! |
