Product Description
Now in its 25th year, this best-selling work is the only neuroanatomy atlas to integrate neuroanatomy and neurobiology with extensive clinical information. It combines full-color anatomical illustrations with over 200 MRI, CT, MRA, and MRV images to clearly demonstrate anatomical-clinical correlations. This edition contains many new MRI/CT images and is fully updated to conform to Terminologia Anatomica. Fifteen innovative new color illustrations correlate clinical images of lesions at strategic locations on pathways with corresponding deficits in Brown-Sequard syndrome, dystonia, Parkinson disease, and other conditions. The question-and-answer chapter contains over 235 review questions, many USMLE-style. Interactive Neuroanatomy, Version 3, an online component packaged with the atlas, contains new brain slice series, including coronal, axial, and sagittal slices.

 Good but not Great May 26, 2008
This is probably the best neuroanatomy atlas for med students, but the tracts are very confusing and hard to follow. This is what my professors used during lectures and sometimes on exams, so it was invaluable to me. I think Neuroanatomy through Clinical Cases had much better drawings of the tracts.
 Neuroanatomy a big deal for USMLE step 1 April 20, 2008

It is a well done book for preparing USMLE step 1. In addition, there are questions like the USMLE test that can help the student to pass it.
I also recommend it for neurologists and neuroradiologists, because there are a lot of CT and MRI scans!
 WARNING --EDITION #7 April 16, 2008

The 7th edition has inexplicably omitted most of the gross dissections of the previous editions!
 Good Atlas, but hard to read February 22, 2008
Haines Atlas has some strong points and some weak points. If the option was given, I would have given it 3.5 stars because it probably is above the average when it comes to atlases and I have not used a different atlas to compare it to.
Strong points:
-The real images are great (CTs and MRIs).
-Cross sections and coronal sections are also well done.
-USMLE style questions at the end of the book are great for medical students (such as myself) and helped me do very will on the NBME Neuroscience shelf exam.
- Online version is a great tool
Weak points:
- As a text, this atlas is VERY confusing.
- Although the diagrams are decent, the color scheme is not explained very well and they use a lot of abbreviations that aren't intuitive, constantly need to be checked, and often times differ from one diagram to the other
This atlas would be best used with a different textbook (I personally recommend Basic Clinical Neuroscience by Young, Young, and Tolbert).
Also, if you are a medical student, combine the two books above with the Pre-test for Neurosciences by Allan Siegel for review of NBME shelf exam and USMLE step 1 exam.
Great book January 15, 2008
This book helped me out so much in my neurobiology class. I would definitely suggest it as a great reference for anyone taking an upper level neuro class who needs great pictures and drawings of the "tracts."
