Revue de presse

The most complete and most profusely illustrated human brain atlas currently available. The atlas contains not only a basic core of information concerning the gross and sectional anatomy of the brain, but also material on the cytoarchitectual and vascular organization of the brain... The index is extensive and very usable. (Contemporary Psychology)

An elegantly produced package of photographs and light micrographs. Handsome and yet reasonably priced.... Anyone with an interest in the subject and a weakness for beautiful books will want to own it. (Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine)

A book which deserves and invites careful handling and gives much aesthetic as well as intellectual satisfaction; at its price it is a remarkable value. (Neuroscience)

There are new sections on coronal views of the gross brain, biochemical neuroanatomy, magnetic resonance, and computerized tomography. The coronal section includes 11 new photographs at a magnification of 1.3x. In addition, many changes have been made in the illustrations retained from earlier editions.
