Includes bibliographical references and index.
Front Cover; The Brain: An introduction to Functional Neuroanatomy; Copyright Page; Dedication; Preface; Acknowledgments; Introduction; Table of contents; Chapter 1: Nerve cells and synapses; Chapter 2: Central nervous system basics--the brain and spinal cord; Chapter 3: A map of the brain; Chapter 4: Peripheral nerves; Chapter 5: Command and control--the motor systems; Chapter 6: Gathering information--the sensory systems; Chapter 7: The human cerebral cortex; Chapter 8: Higher level functions-consciousness, learning, memory, and emotions. Chapter 9: When things go wrong-brain disease and injuryChapter 10: The development of the brain and spinal cord; Chapter 11: Techniques for studying the brain; Appendix A: Voltages, potentials, and cell membranes; Appendix B; Appendix C; Supplementary reading; Glossary; Bibliography; Index.
The authors of the most cited neuroscience publication, The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates, have written this introductory textbook for neuroscience students. The text is clear and concise, and offers an excellent introduction to the essential concepts of neuroscience. Based on contemporary neuroscience research rather than old-style medical school neuroanatomy Thorough treatment of motor and sensory systems A detailed chapter on human cerebral cortex The neuroscience of consciousness, memory, emotion, brain injury, and mental illness A comprehensive chapter on brain development A summary of the techniques of brain research A detailed glossary of neuroscience terms Illustrated with over 130 color photographs and diagrams This book will inspire and inform students of neuroscience. It is designed for beginning students in the health sciences, including psychology, nursing, biology, and medicine.
