About this book
This timely book allows clinicians of the nervous system, who are increasingly confronted with degenerative and psychiatric diseases, to familiarize themselves with the cerebral amygdala and the anatomical structures involved in these pathologies. Its striking photos of cerebral sections and dissections should help MRI specialists to more precisely study the detailed images provided by their constantly evolving equipment.
Reviews
“Richly illustrated, the book offers 227 figures of great quality, mostly composed of macroscopic views, macroscopic sections, and dissection photographs, but also including magnetic resonance images and photomicrographs illustrating embryology and histology. Well-documented, concise and easy to read, this work will be of the greatest interest to all anatomists, physicians, scientists, and researchers dealing with the central nervous system.” (Bruno Grignon, Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, August, 2016)
“This is a detailed atlas and text on the macroscopic, gross anatomy at the sub-nuclear and whole amygdala sections with it’s afferant and efferent connections described. … This a useful reference for neuroanatomists, epileptologists, neurologists, and neurosurgeons working in this part of the brain.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, January, 2016)
