Essential Clinical Neuroanatomy is the first neuroanatomy text that consistently illustrates and discusses the anatomy of the central nervous system from the clinical perspective. All of the illustrations are provided in the clinical view (using the axial radiologic standard of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging). This provides consistency throughout the text and throughout the career of the reader. In addition, the neural pathways are color coded for easier recognition and recall with green indicating sensory components, red indicating voluntary motor components, and purple indicating involuntary (autonomic) components. The clinically relevant neuroanatomy is highlighted, with case studies, clinically-oriented study questions, and clinical boxes of interest. Anatomic details that do not have direct clinical relevance are de-emphasized.

The text is divided into two main sections: the first eleven chapters provide the neuroanatomy of the central nervous system, while the last seven chapters provide descriptions of the sensory, motor, and integration systems within the central nervous system. Each chapter begins with objectives and an outline of the material to be covered. Within each chapter, highlighted clinical boxes are presented, while case studies and clinically relevant multiple choice questions are found at the end of each chapter. Each chapter contains a list of additional readings that include more detail-oriented textbooks, as well as current review articles.

This text is designed for those in the health sciences who require a basic introduction to clinical neuroanatomy. This can include allied health students, first-year medical students, dental students, and neuroscience students. Because of its essential nature, it can be useful for those reviewing neuroanatomy for major licensing or competency examinations.

Thomas H. Champney

The development and production of Essential Clinical Neuroanatomy utilized the skills and strengths of numerous individuals. First, Dr Ron Clark, my predecessor at the University of Miami, generously provided access to his photographic files, his illustrations, and his notes. The foundation of the book is built on his many years of teaching neuroanatomy. Second, all of the clinical imaging (radiographs, computed tomographs, magnetic resonance images) were graciously provided by Dr Charif Sidani, a neuroradiologist associated with the University of Miami. He provided many hours of help in recommending and selecting images for use in the text.

The editorial staff at Wiley Blackwell were extremely helpful in all phases of this project. Specifically, Elizabeth Johnston, Karen Moore, and Nick Morgan were professional and highly organized. In addition, the excellent illustrations by Jane Fallows and Roger Hulley are an integral part of this project. Any anatomy text is only as good as its illustrations. All of these individuals made the daunting task of this project much more manageable.
