Atlas of Human Central Nervous System Development: A Comprehensive Guide

By Shirley A. Bayer, this thirteenth volume in a series of 15 short atlases offers a unique perspective on the classic five-volume Atlas of Human Central Nervous System Development. It presents detailed serial sections from specimens between 310 mm and 350 mm, with comprehensive annotations that provide insights into the developmental highlights of the human central nervous system around nine months of gestation.

This volume is a valuable resource for neuroanatomists, developmental biologists, and clinical practitioners. It offers classic anatomical atlases with detailed labeling of structures in the developing brain, utilizing updated terminology and identifying unique developmental features such as germinal matrices of specific neuronal populations and migratory streams of young neurons.

A separate Glossary is available, providing definitions for all the terms used in this volume and throughout the Atlas series. This comprehensive reference work on brain development will remain relevant for decades to come, offering a deep understanding of the complex processes involved in the formation and maturation of the human central nervous system.
