Summary

This atlas matches pathological slices of the brain with radiologic scans to show the brain's contruction. All parts of the brain are clearly and directly labelled. Nerve pathways through the brain are illustrated using clear colour illustrations. Colour coding and brain-section markers on each page provide easy navigation through the atlas. This book demystifies complexity to show the underlying beauty and logic of human neuroanatomy. Anyone who needs an intimate working knowledge of the human brain will find The Brain Atlas to be a life-long companion.
