Description

The Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations: Nervous System, 2nd Edition provides a highly visual guide to the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral motor and sensory systems. These two spectacularly illustrated volumes in the masterwork known as the (CIBA) Netter "Green Books" have been expanded and revised by Drs. H. Royden Jones, Jr., Ted M. Burns, Michael J. Aminoff, and Scott L. Pomeroy to mirror the many exciting advances in medicine and imaging - offering rich insights into neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and the broad clinical spectrum of neurological diseases and disorders.

Reviews

"The quality of this edition is superb. The authors have stayed true to the classic Netter style and the illustrations demonstrate key concepts with a remarkably elegant simplicity. The book is at the same time thorough, concise, and comprehensive. Given the significant technological, diagnostic, and therapeutic advances over the last 30 years, this update is certainly justified. I'm convinced that it will prove to be a valuable resource for both trainees and practitioners."-Kristin Scott, MD(Mayo Clinic Florida) Doody Review: 5 stars
