Neuroanatomy: An Atlas of Structures, Sections, and Systems (Neuroanatomy: An Atlas of Strutures, Sections, and Systems (Haines))

This book may not be required (it wasnt for our neuro labs in medical school but highly recommended by the instructors) but it is a great atlas that reviews practically everything that you would need to know. The best assets of this atlas are the coronal and horizontal section pictures which are of great quality and its pal-weigert stains which as a medical student i will attest that it is rough to learn. This books helped a ton and I did very well. It is also a great tool to use to review pathways as it devotes pages just to pathways as well. The glossy high quality paper and images makes it very useful in a wet lab such as a neuro lab working with brains but I wouldnt reuse it after and so i bought a second just for my studies while the other stayed in the lab. Even though neurology is one of my favorite areas it gets tough and the mri, ct and all sorts of images really help. I cannot recommend this book enough even if you feel like it is too much i guarantee that you will use it more than any neuro text that would be required. I used this along with BRS neuroanatomy (which lacks images besides basic ones) and I soared through neuro and neuro labs. do yourself a favor and at least by a used copy, if even as an adjunct to wet lab.

Came in the condition I expected. Very quick delivery

This book is quite distinct from other books we used for neurology.Many of the images from this book are not schematics; rather, it uses real MRI or histological sections.In addition, it has some very good schematic diagrams as well.I found the coronal and horizontal sections to be especially useful, because they come with the real images + real images schematized with lines.They also provide an online website code in the book, which allows you to look at everything in the book on the website.This is especially useful for the sake of compiling notes on your computer... I would imagine that professors teaching neuroanatomy would find these images very useful as well.

This atlas is great. I found it super useful in our neuro block. I'd never had neuroanatomy before med school and I found it really helpful. Are you going to be able to teach yourself all of the neuroanatomy with this only-of course not, you don't only use Netter's to learn general anatomy either (at least I can't). You need another text too BUT this book is great and really helps you master a lot of the anatomy.

This book was very helpful to me in learning all the complicated neural tracts. Very detailed and the multi-colored lines helped visually. I used it in med school but my bf, who was in his 5/6/7th year of neurosurgery residency at the time, was still referencing it so, it obviously was very helpful for more advanced neuroanatomy review purposes.

I think this is a fantastic reference to have for any medical student taking neuroscience in their first or second year. While I did not read through it from cover to cover, it was valuable to have at my finger tips to reference while reading, and the cross-sections moving up and down the brainstem/brain was extremely useful.

Incredible! this text has it all. Diagrams, real images of CT, MRI, and others, and text to explain what you are looking at. Perfect.The best part is after all the great images there is a section on clinical correlations. We can't all remember everything, so we need books like this to have a reference.

I enjoyed the paperback version and essential for those students of neuroanatomy
