This book approaches neuroanatomy from both functional and regional perspectives, considering those parts of the nervous system that work together to produce behaviour. Examples of MRI and PET images illustrate the close relationship between anatomy and radiology and the role of these modalities in providing information about the structure, chemistry and function of the living brain. The entire text is supplemented by high-quality line drawings of the spinal cord, brain stem, and cerebral hemisphere.
