Product Description

This dissection guide is intended for use by all who are studying the structure of the human brain in direct laboratory experience. In addition to providing detailed descriptions of how to perform the dissection, the book contains excellent photographs of surface features and internal structures that illustrate the human brain in various stages of dissection. For this second edition, the authors have updated the text and the illustrations, and have added photographic inserts where appropriate to amplify key anatomical points. Most important, they have added an atlas of brain sections that consists of 62 labelled photographs of stained brain sections cut in four different planes. These sections are accompanied by CT scans and MR images corresponding as closely as possible to the same anatomical plane. Comprehensive but concise, The Human Brain in Dissection is an invaluable guide for students of human neuroanatomy.
