The thoroughly updated edition of Barr's The Human Nervous System retains the features that made this book a favorite neuroanatomy text for 25 years--conciseness, clarity, outstanding illustrations, and emphasis on correlating neuroanatomy with clinical conditions. The text gives students the solid foundation in neuroanatomy they need, with all-inclusive coverage of normal, functional anatomy as well as examples of disorders that result from specific injuries and diseases.The Seventh Edition includes extensive new material on contemporary functional neuroimaging methods in relation to both normal function and disease. The neural circuit diagrams have been revised to reflect current knowledge, several of these diagrams have been made simpler and clearer, and the photographs of sections of the brain stem and diencephalon are larger. PLUS--this edition comes with a diskette containing a self-assessment program, exam questions, and a glossary.
