"This innovative neuroanatomy tutorial features a programmed learning approach that allows students to learn at their own pace by building on previously learned concepts. The book has a unique "flash card" format in which students learn neuroanatomical concepts and then label figures and complete fill-in-the-blank questions, with the answers appearing on the next page. The tutorial introduces new information, reviews previously learned information, and applies it in new contexts, highlighting important details, and illustrating steps in a reasoning process. This teaching method expands and reinforces the student's understanding and retention of neuroanatomical knowledge. This edition features updated illustrations, a systems-based organization, and new concepts on the cerebellum, extrapyramidal pathways, special sensory pathways, diencephalon, ventricular system, and vascular anatomy. Terminology has been updated to conform to Terminologia Anatomica. A companion Website offers an interactive version of the questions in the book, along with animations."--Publisher description.
