Editorial Review: Product Description: Sidman's Neuroanatomy: A Programmed Learning Tool, Second Edition is an innovative combined neuroanatomy text and review that covers the structure of the entire nervous system. Its unique programmed learning approach allows students to easily retain information and learn at their own pace by slowly building on previously learned concepts throughout each chapter. The programmed learning approach introduces new information and reviews previously learned information by presenting it in new contexts, calling attention to important details and illustrating steps in a reasoning process. This learning method adds to and reinforces the student's understanding and retention of neuroanatomical knowledge. This edition features updated illustrations, a systems-based organization, and new concepts on the cerebellum, extrapyramidal pathways, special sensory pathways, diencephalon, ventricular system, and vascular anatomy. Terminology has been updated to conform to Terminologia Anatomica. Accompanying the book is a multimedia component, containing an interactive question bank with fill-in-the-blank and figure labeling exercises, pop-up images, and hot spot identification questions as well as brand-new neuroanatomical animations.

It ends up being a large garbled mess that the student then has ... Read More Rating:  - A review outline before a medical school exam.Unfortunately, the title doesn't live up to it's billing. The work is written not as a text, but as a review for exams, on account of which material is not presented directly, but only in response to a series of quizes. Perhaps it works well if you're in the middle of a neuroanatomy course and studying for an exam. I wasn't and returned the book.
