“Compared to textbooks on this topic, this handbook makes functional neuroanatomy easy to understand, presenting it in a concise and clear manner. The author has filtered the detailed information and provided a simple review and summary.

It is easy to understand and it provides an excellent overview.” -Sylvia Ann Mehl, BS, MS, Doody's Review Services
