Fitzgerald's Clinical Neuroanatomy and Neuroscience

 

Description:

 

Ideal for both medical students and those in non-medical courses, Fitzgerald's Clinical Neuroanatomy and Neuroscience, 8th Edition, uses clear, understandable text and outstanding artwork to make a complex subject easily accessible. This award-winning title is known for superb illustrations and high readability, expertly integrating clinical neuroanatomy with the clinical application of neuroscience.

Organizes chapters by anatomical area, with integrated analyses of sensory, motor, and cognitive systems.

Breaks complex concepts and subjects into easily digestible content with clear images and concise, straightforward explanations.

Features explanatory illustrations drawn by the same meticulous artists who illustrated Gray’s Anatomy.

Includes new Basic Science Panels that highlight an emerging or relevant basic science concept to expand your learning in specific content areas.

Contains learning helps in every chapter, including bulleted points, clinical boxes, opening summaries, and concluding core information boxes.

Evolve Instructor site with an image and test bank is available to instructors through their Elsevier sales rep or via request at https://evolve.elsevier.com.
