Overview

"This work links structure, function, and clinical findings and covers neuroanatomy from the basic structure and function of the brain and spinal cord to the advanced clinical symptoms of disease processes. Its exploration of the relationship between neuroanatomy and neurology should be relevant to students in both basic sciences and clinical programmes.A chapter entitled ""Introduction to Clinical Thinking"" provides a basis for thinking about neuroanatomy in terms of its implications for disorders of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves."
