Development of the Nervous System, 2nd Edition
"The images are vastly superior to the first edition and the CD with images is a big help for lectures.... for now it might be reasonable to call it the best text available for Developmental Neurobiology."Stuart Tobet, Department of Biolomedical Sciences, Colorado State University"This second edition ofDevelopment of the Nervous Systemis very impressive and a great improvement on the first edition which I have used for the last 4 years in my course. The authors should be very proud of such a fine product."--Ford F. Ebner, Professor of Psychology and Cell and Developmental Biology, Neuroscience, Vanderbilt University, Tennessee, USAPraise for the First Edition:"...a truly excellent text that will serve to excite new students in neuroscience and development for years to come...[The authors] imbue their text with enthusiasm, which combined with a scholarly and methodical review of the history of developmental neurology, generates a shockingly easy to read and interesting text."--TRENDS IN NEUROSCIENCES (May 2001)"Clearly and accurately written, beautifully illustrated and thoughtfully organized, this book covers everything from neural induction to the ontogeny of behavior in a style that is easily accessible to students."--RONALD W. OPPENHEIM, Ph.D., Department of Neurobiology & Anatomy, Wake Forest University, Bowman Gray Medical School"The book provides a scholarly review of the past and a carefully pruned view of the present. With relief, I can add that it is written in a clear, accessible style that students will appreciate."--Sally Temple, NATURE NEUROSCIENCE"I certainly intend to make this book required reading for our own graduate course in Developmental Neuroscience."--JOHN L. BIXBY, Neuroscience Program, University of Miami, School of Medicine
