Review
“This neuroanatomy book is a must have when studying a neurology module. Its illustrations and diagrams are a great help in understanding a somewhat complex topic. It's coherently written and pitched at the right level, which makes it an easy read and light work on the eyes when cramming! It's difficult to pick out a best chapter, as all are extremely good and highly relevant.”
