Authored by the same team that created Cranial Nerves, this book provides an easy-to-follow overview of autonomic nerves. The first part describes their structure and function. The second part addresses autonomic control of individual organ systems in a problem-based learning format. Throughout, Autonomic Nerves describes afferent pathways, integrating structures and mechanisms, efferent pathways, and the autonomic effectors. Principles of autonomic neurotransmission are also discussed.

Cranial Nerves: Anatomy and Clinical Comments,
This review is from: Autonomic Nerves (Paperback)
This books was very helpful in my study of the Cranial Nerves. Not ony did it show the nerves in 3-D, but it also gave clincal applications of each cranial nerve. It was tremendously helpful because it gives the nerve components which makes clinical applications relevant. The detail of this book is sufficient and meets the needs of a medical school student. It is a "must-have" for medical school and the boards.
3.0 out of 5 stars
Does its purpose,

Nice large print and colorful pictures. some charts that are useful, but the colorful diagrams also explain whats going on. Small in depth so easy to store and use. Havent tried the CD but it probably is good too.
