Greenfield's Neuropathology, 8th Edition (2 Volume Set & CD-ROM) (Hardcover)
저 자 : Love, Seth, Ph.D. (EDT)/ Louis, David N., M.D. (EDT)
Greenfield's Neuropathology, the world's leading neuropathology reference, provides an authoritative, comprehensive
account of the pathological findings in neurological disease, their biological basis and their clinical manifestations.
This account is underpinned throughout by a clear
description of the molecular and cellular processes and reactions that are relevant to the development, and normal and
abnormal functioning of, the nervous system. While this scientific content is of paramount importance, however, care
has been taken to ensure that the information is presented in a
way that is accessible to readers working within a range of disciplines in the clinical neurosciences, and that also
places the neuropathological findings within the context of a broader diagnostic process.
The eighth edition incorporates much new information, new illustrations and many new authors, while retaining the
depth, breadth and quality of content so praised in previous editions. Each chapter opens with an introductory section
designed to offer an integrated approach to diagnosis, taking
account of clinical manifestations, neuroradiological and laboratory findings as well as the neuropathological and
molecular genetic features of the diseases being considered. Strong emphasis has been placed on facilitating the
retrieval of neuropathological information by non-neuropathologists
grapping with differential diagnoses or seeking information on broad categories of neurological disease, and boxes and
tables are used to present important symptoms and signs, patterns of disease and other features for ease of reference.
High quality line and photographic illustrations, the majority in full color, are all available on a companion CD, to
complete the offering.
