"The book is intended for students in the health professions who are looking for a concise, clinically-relevant introduction to or review of human neuroanatomy. For students studying functional neuroanatomy for the first time, individual topics are covered in sufficient depth to permit and adequate understanding of the subject but not in so much detail that valuable time is lost or diverted from other studies or learning activities. Students with a previous academic or clinical background in functional neuroanatomy will find the depth of coverage quite adequate for the purpose of review. The book is organized primarily to facilitate understanding of nervous system function with specific sections dealing with sensory and motor functions, functions mediated by the cranial nerves and the so-called higher cortical functions. Additional sections are included that focus on the gross anatomical organization of the nervous system and the physical environment in which the nervous system is located. These latter sections address such topics as the blood supply and venous drainage of the brain, the multilayered meningeal coverings of the central nervous system and the carefully regulated fluid environment both within and surrounding the brain that is necessary for normal nerve cell function"--Provided by publisher.

Animals, Animality, and Literature offers readers a one-volume survey of the field of literary animal studies in both its theoretical and applied dimensions. Focusing on English literary history, with scrupulous attention to the interplay between English and foreign influences, this collection gathers together the work of nineteen internationally noted specialists in this growing discipline. Offering discussion of English literary works from Beowulf to Virginia Woolf and beyond, this book explores the ways human/animal difference has been historically activated within the literary context: in devotional works, in philosophical and zoological treatises, in plays and poems and novels, and more recently within emerging narrative genres such as cinema and animation. With an introductory overview of the historical development of animal studies and afterword looking to the field's future possibilities, Animals, Animality, and Literature provides a wide-ranging survey of where this discipline currently stands.
