The rat brain in stereotaxic coordinates

by George Paxinos, Charles Watson

The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates, Compact Third Edition provides student-friendly, coronal section diagrams of the most widely used mammalian in neuroscience. The material presented is based upon current acceptance of nomenclature and presents thoroughly revised delineations meticulously placed for the researcher's convenience. In one compact source, the authors have presented an accurate, convenient, and transportable reference for students, teachers, and researchers. Key features: 78 coronal sections with abbreviated explanations on each diagram; each diagram contains a miniature sagittal drawing to illustrate the orientation of the section in the antero-posterior dimension; thoroughly revised delineations; twenty-two levels of the spinal cord showing many more levels than presented in the Second Edition; and lab-friendly size and construction.
