Request a sales quoteOffering a concise, highly visual approach to the basic science and clinical pathology of the nervous system, this updated volume in The Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations (the CIBA "Green Books") contains unparalleled didactic illustrations reflecting the latest medical knowledge. Revised by Drs. Michael J. Aminoff, Scott L. Pomeroy, and Kerry H. Levin, Brain, Part 1 of the Nervous System, Volume 7, integrates core concepts of anatomy, physiology, and other basic sciences with common clinical correlates across health, medical, and surgical disciplines. Classic Netter art, updated and new illustrations, and modern imaging continue to bring medical concepts to life and make this timeless work an essential resource for students, clinicians, and educators.
- Provides a highly visual guide to this complex organ, from basic neurodevelopment, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and cognition to a full range of disorders, including epilepsy, disorders of consciousness and sleep, movement disorders, stroke, multiple sclerosis, neurologic infections, neuro-oncology, headaches, and brain trauma.
- Offers expanded coverage of timely topics like acute flaccid paralysis; neurological complications of COVID-19, ependymomas, genetics of epilepsy, and more.
- Provides a concise overview of complex information by seamlessly integrating anatomical and physiological concepts using practical clinical scenarios.
- Shares the experience and knowledge of Drs. Michael J. Aminoff, Scott L. Pomeroy, and Kerry H. Levin, with content overseen by experts at Harvard, UCSF, and other leading neurology centers.
- Compiles Dr. Frank H. Netter’s master medical artistry—an aesthetic tribute and source of inspiration for medical professionals for over half a century—along with new art in the Netter tradition for each of the major body systems, making this volume a powerful and memorable tool for building foundational knowledge and educating patients or staff.
- NEW! An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.
Diverse worldwide market; both practitioners and trainees across medical and health professions; institutions
For the series: medical schools with a systems-based curriculum (students, instructors, staff, library); clinical practitioners at all levels (especially nonspecialists and specialists interested in areas outside of their specialty); Netter fans and gift-buyers for Netter fans.
For the book/volume: offices/depts/individuals in orthopaedics, physical therapy, rheumatology, and other musculoskeletal specialties. Much of the content will be superficial for their daily practice purposes, but it will be appreciated for its artistic depictions of the field and something to be used with patients, staff, and students/trainees.
