The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates - The New Coronal Set, Fifth Edition Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This compact version has all the full color plates on the CD-ROM but only has line drawings in the spiral-bound pages, so you can't just pick up the book and expect to find what you are looking for. Instead you have to load the CD, etc.. Don't try to save money on this one (as I did): if this is for lab, be sure to get the full-size version with all the color plates.

Product Description:
The preceding editions made The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates the second most cited book in science. This Fifth Edition is the result of years of research providing the user with the drawings of the completely new set of coronal sections, now from one rat, and with significantly improved resolution by adding a third additional section level as compared to earlier editions. Numerous new nuclei and structures also have been identified. The drawings are presented in two color, providing a much better contrast for use, and the accompanying CD-ROM contains all of the drawings from the atlas as well as the corresponding color micrographs (which are not included in the book).

Affordable, comprehensive, compact, and convenient, the Fifth Edition continues the legacy of this major neuroscience publication and is a guide to all students and scientists who study the rat brain.
