Written by Stephen G. Waxman

A thorough, incredibly illustrated manual on neuroanatomy and its functional and therapeutic uses

Clinical Neuroanatomy offers an accessible overview of neuroanatomy and its functional and clinical implications through an engaging

writing style and copious illustrations.

All the information you want regarding the composition and operations of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves will be

covered.

This authoritative handbook examines the relationship between neuroanatomy and neurology, provides clinical presentations of

disease processes involving specific structures, and discusses developments in neuroanatomy-related molecular and cellular biology

and neuropharmacology.

Case studies and hundreds of graphic pictures—such as MRI and CT scans, block diagrams illustrating muscle movements, nerve-by

nerve and root-by-root images of sensory regions and muscle intervention—are included in the book.

This revised version includes:

Information boxes under “Essentials for the Clinician” that further clarify important pointsAn examination of the most recent

developments in cellular and molecular biology within the framework of neuroanatomyA special “Introduction to Clinical Thinking”

chapter that clearly places neuroanatomy in a clinical contextAt the conclusion of every chapter are summary listingsBlock diagrams

that show how each muscle works Detailed examples of sensory areas and muscle intervention, root by root and nerve by

nervediscussion of the fundamental make-up and operations of the spinal cord, brain and peripheral nerves Topics covered in the

appendix include spinal nerves and plexuses, assessing muscle function, and neurologic examination.

Case studies that illustrate the application of ideas to actual circumstancesA comprehensive practice test to evaluate your

understanding.
