Neuroscience

For over thirty years The Human Nervous System has offered a concise, well-written text on neuroanatomy for both medical and allied health students. This successful title is organised into four major parts: cellular aspects of the nervous system, regional anatomy of the brain and spinal cord, sensory and motor systems, and blood supply. The Eighth Edition has been simplified to enhance coverage of the essentials and help students learn important facts and definitions. A FREE CD-ROM packaged with the book contains more than 400 interactive self-testing multiple-choice review questions, as well as expanded versions of selected chapters.

Widely praised for its student-friendly style and exceptional artwork and pedagogy, Neuroscience: Exploring the Brain is a leading undergraduate textbook on the biology of the brain and the systems that underlie behaviour. This edition provides increased coverage of taste and smell, circadian rhythms, brain development, and developmental disorders and includes new information on molecular mechanisms and functional brain imaging. Path of Discovery boxes, written by leading researchers, highlight major current discoveries.

In addition, readers will be able to assess their knowledge of neuroanatomy with the Illustrated Guide to Human Neuroanatomy, which includes a perforated self-testing workbook. This edition's robust ancillary package includes a bound-in student CD-ROM, an Instructor's Resource CD-ROM, a Connection Website, and LiveAdvise: Neuroscience online student tutoring
