Neuroanatomical Tract-Tracing: Molecules, Neurons, and Systems Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This magnificent volume with a modest title "Neuroanatomical Tract-Tracing 3" by Prof. Zaborszky, Wouterlood and Lanciego, amalgamates into one a prosperous collection of recipes and protocols summarizing methodical wisdom and knowledge from world renowned laboratories and experts in brain science. It gives not only a detailed description of guidelines, protocols and procedures of classical neuro-anatomical methods and tract-tracing techniques but also introduces more recent concepts and tools for structural neuroscience such as viral tract-tracing, computational neuro-anatomy, functional imaging and neuronal network modeling. Each chapter (overall 20) starts with a brief and effective introduction to concept and methodology followed by meticulous recipes and applications illustrated with extensive experimental examples, literature overview and discussions. The clarity and wide scope of topics covered by this volume render it the book of choice for new and established explorers of the brain puzzle.

Product Description:

The first two editions of this title had a tremendous impact in neuroscience. Between the previous edition in 1989 and today, there has been an explosion of information in the field. These include advances in molecular techniques, such as genomics and proteomics, which have become increasing important in neuroscience. A renaissance in fluorescence has occurred, driven by the development of new probes, new microscopes, live imagers, and computer processing. The introduction of new markers has enormously stimulated the field, moving it from tissue culture to neurophysiology to functional MRI techniques.As with previous editions, this new edition will be welcomed by the graduate students working in the lab who needs fast, complete, up-to-date, and immediately applicable information about techniques, written by acknowledged experts in the field.

Parkinsons Disease and Other Movement Disorders (Oxford Specialist Handbooks in Neurology) with DVD Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a Neurologist currently training in the field of movement disorders. I think this is an excellent book for anybody dealing with this group of patients. The book is very well organized and explanations are concise, clear and didactic. Its main strength is how it helps you with the differential diagnosis by using a symptom guided approach. It provides many very useful tables which allow you to keep in mind common and uncommon conditions when facing an unusual patient. It also includes practical information regarding diagnostic tests and treatment (different options, dosages, common side effects). I was amazed at the vast amount of information contained in such a small book. The DVD with patient videos, although a little bit short, is a great extra. The test is also very coherent, probably reflecting that it is the work of very few authors. In summary I would say it covers everything you need to know to work in a Movement Disorders clinic and a little bit more... And you can carry it in your pocket!

Product Description:
Movement disorders are a group of neurological conditions that are characterised by problems with movement - either unwanted movements, such as tremors, jerks or twitches, or slowness and poverty of movement.Parkinson's disease is the most common of these conditions, and it affects approximately 1% of the population.Its treatment is complex, but effective, and there have been many recent exciting developments in the field.Other movement disorders are less common and extremely diverse, so it is difficult for practitioners to become proficient in diagnosing and treating them all.This book will help neurologists and other clinicians in the recognition and treatment of this important group of disorders.Written in a concise, easy-to-use handbook format, it should appeal to a multidisciplinary audience.The text is accompanied by a DVD with video clips illustrating the different movement disorders.
