The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates cover

Completely revised edition of one of the top-cited books in science, this atlas is the definitive lab resource on the rat brain.

Incorporates findings on developmental gene expression and shows the boundaries of neuromeres in the diencephalon and brain stem. This book features: 161 thoroughly revised coronal diagrams and accompanying photographic plates spaced at 120 m intervals; and 19 thoroughly revised sagittal diagrams and accompanying photographic plates.Since its first edition in 1982, the Paxinos and Watson rat brain atlas has become the most trusted source of accurate coordinates and anatomical information in laboratories throughout the world. It has been cited over 60,000 times, making it the most cited publication in neuroscience. The seventh edition incorporates new findings on developmental gene expression and presents the boundaries of neuromeres in sagittal sections.

"…this version contains 161 revised coronal diagrams with accompanying photographic plates of microtome slides taken at 120 micrometer intervals through the brain from its anterior to posterior end…The book will be useful to students and teachers of neuroanatomy in medical schools, with additional uses in neurological research and specialist veterinary medicine." --ProtoView.com, March 2014
