Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5 brains everywhere!, 2008-10-07
I was looking for a text to help me out in a biopsych class, and this is more than I could have asked for. It's a great reference, loads of detailed "cuts" with lots of labeling. Most images are real brain pictures from MRIs and such and not alot of drawing. This is mostly a physical reference, so if you are looking for explainations on systems, etc, you may want to look elsewhere, but I love it, it is a fabulous reference and I use it often. If you are into neuroscience or biological psychology or anything along those lines, this is for you.

I used this atlas extensively for neuroanatomy in med school. Pictures are phenomenal, and the pathways overlayed on anatomical structures are very helpful. I prefer this atlas over Haines.

This is a great atlas with photographs of slices, MRI images and more, and FANTASTIC pathways illustrations.
