Anatomy of Neuropsychiatry: The New Anatomy of the Basal Forebrain and Its Implications for Neuropsychiatric Illness, 2nd Edition (EPUB)

Anatomy of Neuropsychiatry: The New Anatomy of the Basal Forebrain and Its Implications for Neuropsychiatric Illness, Second Edition presents the anatomical systems that take part in the scientific and clinical study of emotional functions and neuropsychiatric disorders. The book discusses the limbic system—the cortical and subcortical structures in the human brain involved in emotion, motivation, and emotional association with memory—at length and how this is no longer a useful guide to the study of psychiatric disorders. Newly revised, this book now includes chapters focusing on the anatomy of Basal Forebrain and Cerebellum Macrosystems and the role these macrosystems paly in motion, emotion, and neuropsychiatric illnesses. This book will help reader develop an understanding of the gross anatomical organization of the human forebrain.Presents discredited concept of the limbic systemReviews the neuroanatomy of the basal forebrain, greater limbic lobe, and reticular coreIncludes Clinical and Basic Science Boxes highlighting specific concepts, structures, and neuronal circuits from functional and clinical perspectivesFeatures 10 videos of dissections of human brain done by the late Lennart Heimer
