This practical guide connects the theory of neuroscience with real-world clinical application by utilizing first person accounts of neurological disorders and in-depth case studies. It also provides clear descriptions of a complete range of neurological disorders. Special features such as "at-a-glance" summaries, pathology boxes, and hundreds of full-color illustrations, enhance the learning experience and make it easy to master the fundamentals of neuroscience rehabilitation.

• Systems approach to neuroscience helps you develop a fuller understanding of concepts in the beginning of the text and apply them to new clinical disorders later in the text.
• Five sections: Cellular Level, Development, Systems, Regions, and Support Systems show how neural cells operate first, and then help you apply that knowledge while developing an understanding of systems neuroscience.
• UNIQUE! An emphasis on neuroscience issues critical for practice of physical rehabilitation such as abnormal muscle tone, chronic pain, and control of movement.
• Evidence-based content has been updated to reflect the most recent research.
• Patient experience boxes at the beginning of each chapter give insight from actual patients and the patients' experiences with disorders discussed in the text.
• Clinical notes case studies include bulleted information relevant to the clinician.

• NEW! Chapter on pain will help students understand the physiological origins of pain and how it can be treated.
• NEW! Color standardization in anatomy images will familiarize you with structures and their functions across systems.

I'm a PT student and I found this text to be invaluable. Lundy-Ekman does a great job of having that balance of information so that information isn't "dumbed" down but it doesn't get overly technical. This was my primary source in my neuroscience learning. Her "clinical pearls", case examples, and overall focus on the clinical aspects of neuroscience makes this a superb text for a graduate level intro to neuroscience course. This text is specifically geared towards PTs, OTs, and others in the rehabilitation field.

I found this text poorly organized and difficult to decipher. If you are taking neuroscience for the first time you will need to supplement your knowledge with other sources.
