Human Neuroanatomy is a unique resource that presents the neuroanatomy of the central and peripheral nervous systems. This atlas-style reference features human brain sections with radiological correlations and original illustrations accompanying macroscopic and microscopic photographs. Chapters include a large number of illustrations in the form of photographs, Illustrations, and MR imaging, including a human brain atlas. Boxes within each chapter contain clinical information, with tables of topic summaries. Presented along with clinical approaches and analyses, this is a reference for all neuroscientists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, medical students, and all students of neuroscience.

Development & Plasticity in Sensory Thalamus & Cortex is based on a 2-day symposium offered for the first time at SFN 2003. The symposium focused on the latest findings and ideas, focusing on visual and somatosensory thalamus and neocortex in rodents and carnivores and functional imaging studies in developing and aging human neocortex, as well as plastic changes after spinal cord injury. This volume will cover recent advances in understanding sensory thalamic and cortical function, organization, and plasticity. Chapters will cover a broad range of approaches from single cell recordings to viral gene transfer to transgenic and knockout mouse models to functional imaging in human cortex. The text is intended to provide an update on the multitude of technical and experimental approaches in understanding the development and plasticity of the mammalian sensory thalamus and neocortex and provide a synthetic theoretical framework for future studies.
