    Cram Session in Functional Neuroanatomy Reviews

    Compared to textbooks on this topic, this handbook makes functional neuroanatomy easy to understand, presenting it in a concise and clear manner. The author has filtered the detailed information and provided a simple review and summary. I recommend this book for practicing clinicians and students who are in the process of learning and understanding neuroanatomy. It is easy to understand and it provides an excellent overview.
