Greenfield's Neuropathology

Abstract

Announcing the new edition of the world's leading neuropathology reference. Building on the many changes introduced in the acclaimed 6th edition, the two-volume 7th edition of Greenfield's Neuropathology will continue to provide THE definitive account of neuropathology - encompassing all aspects from prenatal and developmental, through the major diseases including tumors, to degeneration and dementia. Coverage of the subject combines descriptive morphology with molecular biology, genetics, protein chemistry, and pathophysiology. Over 2000 high quality color and black and white illustrations complement the text throughout. Substantial changes have been made to this new edition, including a brand new chapter on Metabolic and Neurodegenerative Diseases of Childhood, and a completely new review of the neuropathology of psychiatric disorders. Many new contributors provide new insights and expertise - over 25% of the chapters have been written by a completely new author team, and 70% of chapters feature at least one new author. In addition to this, 40% of the illustrations are new to this edition.
