Content
The Spinal Cord, a collaboration with the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation, is the first comprehensive book on the anatomy of the mammalian spinal cord. While thousands of journal articles and dozens of books are published on this subject each year, there is no comprehensive and authorititive atlas of the mammalian spinal cord. Almost all of the fine details of spinal cord anatomy must be searched for in journal articles on particular subjects. The book is organized into two parts. Part 1 is a descriptive survey of the details of mammalian spinal cord anatomy with many illustrations from the leading experts in the field, focusing on the rat. Part 2 is a series of atlases of the rat and the mouse spinal cord. The atlasses include drawings and photographs of 34 transverse sections each for rat and mouse, as well as photographs of a variety of chemical markers.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages
