About the Book
Greenfield's Neuropathology, the worlds leading neuropathology reference, provides an authoritative, comprehensive account of the pathological findings in neurological disease, their biological basis and their clinical manifestations. Underpinning the text is 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. Care has been taken to ensure that the information is accessible to readers working within a range of disciplines in the clinical neurosciences, and that the neuropathological findings are placed within the context of a broader diagnostic process. New for the ninth edition * An expert, truly international editorial team of the highest calibre have recruited many new international key opinion leaders to provide a fresh perspective whilst retaining the depth, breadth and quality of content so praised in previous editions. * Many new new colour illustrations and clinical photographs of excellent quality are included in image galleries to provide the comprehensive collection needed for research and clinical practice.
* Greenfield's is now available in on line and downloadable digital formats with rapid search functions, image collections and live reference links. Presigious and erudite, yet with a practical approach, Greenfield's continues to provide comprehensive and definitive trusted information to all neuropathologists and related specialties including: neurologists, neurosurgeons, general pathologists, neuroradiologists and clinical neuroscientists.
