Reviews

[Allison · Rating 3 out of 5]

I was assigned this textbook for a second-year graduate course in neuroanatomy and physiology. Although it contains a lot of useful reference information, it was not appropriate for this advanced level of study; it is more suited to an introductory course because it does not give a lot of depth.
