| Summary |
Introduction to Neuropathology, 3rd Edition remains an introductory text, but more clinical material has been introduced to make it relevant to neurologists and some psychiatrists, as well as pathologists. This involves the addition of small amounts of text throughout, plus neuroimages, including functional MRI in color. In addition, the text has been updated throughout with a new team of contributing authors |
