From the reviews of the third edition: "Written by American experts in their relevant research fields, the present book ... thus providing a board and timely overview of basic, applied and clinical neurosciences. ... Each chapter ends with a brief list of selected references, and an index of 42 pages ... . The revised edition ... provides not only an up-to-date and readily accessible guide to brain functions and their disorders, but also a highly informative overview of the current state of knowledge in neurosciences and their relevance to neurological disorders." (K. A. Jellinger, European Journal of Neurology, 2008) "This is a much-needed update on the molecular aspects of neuroscience and its contribution to clinical medicine. ... The book is written primarily for medical and nursing students. ... This is a needed update on clinical neuroscience and a necessary acquisition for any neurosciences library. Students will find it a useful contribution to the field." (Celso Agner, Doody's Review service, January, 2009)
