Jeremy D. Schmahmann, Deepak N. Pandya Fiber Pathways of the Brain

Annotation

Beautifully illustrated, this unique volume is a comprehensive study of the corticocortical and corticosubocortical connections in the cerebral cortex of the rhesus monkey. It will give readers a detailed understanding of the white matter fiber pathways of the brain. The book provides in-depth historical background and an atlas of the cerebral white matter. It is enriched throughout by discussions of functional and clinical aspects. An important addition to systems and cognitive neuroscience, the book will be of lasting value to neurobiologists, anatomists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, psychiatrists, psychologists, and to their students and trainees.
