Publisher Synopsis
This monograph serves as an excellent reference for investigators, educators, and clinicians interested in cortical connectivity and diseases affecting cerebral white matter. It is profusely illustrated with detailed, but clear, photographs, photomicrographs, illustrations, diagrams, and MRI and CT scan images. References and chapter notes are abundant. Journal of the Neurological Sciences This large, well-illustrated volume deals with one aspect of the fibre systems of the brain. The book reports the results of tracing efferent fibre connections from various areas of the cerebral cortex of 32 macaque monkeys. The book would useful for those wishing to have an anatomical basis for interpreting patterns of connectivity seen in scans, and some of the clinical symptoms that might be associated with interruption of fibre pathways. Brain ...this book offers a splendid addition to our knowledge of brain anatomy. With exceptional scholarship that lays a solid foundation for the investigation of the role of white matter in brain-behaviour relationships, the authors have presented a tour de force of neuroanatomy that those interested in brain connectivity will find most valuable.
