Book Description

0781763282 978-0781763288 June 1, 2007 Seventh, North American Edition

Now in its 25th year, this best-selling work is the only neuroanatomy atlas to integrate neuroanatomy and neurobiology with extensive clinical information. It combines full-color anatomical illustrations with over 200 MRI, CT, MRA, and MRV images to clearly demonstrate anatomical-clinical correlations.

This edition contains many new MRI/CT images and is fully updated to conform to Terminologia Anatomica. Fifteen innovative new color illustrations correlate clinical images of lesions at strategic locations on pathways with corresponding deficits in Brown-Sequard syndrome, dystonia, Parkinson disease, and other conditions. The question-and-answer chapter contains over 235 review questions, many USMLE-style.

Interactive Neuroanatomy, Version 3, an online component packaged with the atlas, contains new brain slice series, including coronal, axial, and sagittal slices.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Atlas, but hard to read, February 21, 2008
This review is from: Neuroanatomy: An Atlas of Structures, Sections, and Systems (Point (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins)) (Paperback)
Haines Atlas has some strong points and some weak points. If the option was given, I would have given it 3.5 stars because it probably is above the average when it comes to atlases and I have not used a different atlas to compare it to.

Strong points:
-The real images are great (CTs and MRIs).
-Cross sections and coronal sections are also well done.
-USMLE style questions at the end of the book are great for medical students (such as myself) and helped me do very will on the NBME Neuroscience shelf exam.
- Online version is a great tool

Weak points:
- As a text, this atlas is VERY confusing.
- Although the diagrams are decent, the color scheme is not explained very well and they use a lot of abbreviations that aren't intuitive, constantly need to be checked, and often times differ from one diagram to the other

This atlas would be best used with a different textbook (I personally recommend Basic Clinical Neuroscience by Young, Young, and Tolbert).

Also, if you are a medical student, combine the two books above with the Pre-test for Neurosciences by Allan Siegel for review of NBME shelf exam and USMLE step 1 exam.

2.0 out of 5 stars WARNING --EDITION #7, April 16, 2008
This review is from: Neuroanatomy: An Atlas of Structures, Sections, and Systems (Point (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins)) (Paperback)
The 7th edition has inexplicably omitted most of the gross dissections of the previous editions!

4.0 out of 5 stars It has very useful images which are not easy to find elsewhere, June 16, 2009

This review is from: Neuroanatomy: An Atlas of Structures, Sections, and Systems (Point (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins)) (Paperback)
This book is quite distinct from other books we used for neurology.
Many of the images from this book are not schematics; rather, it uses real MRI or histological sections.
In addition, it has some very good schematic diagrams as well.

I found the coronal and horizontal sections to be especially useful, because they come with the real images + real images schematized with lines.

They also provide an online website code in the book, which allows you to look at everything in the book on the website.
This is especially useful for the sake of compiling notes on your computer... I would imagine that professors teaching neuroanatomy would find these images very useful as well.
