The Human Brain: An Introduction to Its Functional Anatomy

by John Nolte

The Human Brain is a single-authored core neuroscience text that describes the structure and function of the brain and nervous system. The text covers the neuroanatomy that medical and other health care students need, with expanded coverage of neurophysiology and inclusion of clinical content that provides real-life application of neuroanatomy and neurophysiologic concepts to clinical neurologic disorders.

Its readability and enhanced 4-colour illustrations make this a favourite among both students and faculty.

[Daniel Michelson]

great atlas of the brainstem

[Daryl ONeal]

The ebook needs work

The Kindle version of this text is not an easy read; there are a fair amount of formatting issues. As a reference text, its been pretty useful for medical neuroscience and head & neck anatomy.

[Sophie Rapp]

This book has brought me pain and suffering enough to put it on my gr. Hate it here fr

[Carolyn]

Somewhat dated anatomical/physiological neuroscience fusion text. Beautiful, precise illustrations not mottled by modern 3D rendering as is common practice of current scientific illustrators. This edition (of course) lacks 20 years worth of neuroscience research. Thus, it's not worth much aside from its use as a structural atlas of the brain.

[Cadel]

A relatively easy read that presents information in an understandable way.

Bane of my existence, but pretty damn good all the same.

[Daniel Ekechukwu]
