"Anyone involved in neurological studies and practice will find this a relevant guide, especially those new to the neurosciences, those studying for exams, and those in need of a refresher after time away from practice in the field. This is one of those books where the title says it all. It is meant to define and describe neuroscience terminology and phenomena, which it does with aplomb." --Christopher J Graver, Doody's Health Science Book Review
