The complement to The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates, Chemoarchitectonic Atlas of the Rat Brain, Third Edition, features a single brain series of high-quality plates stained with eight different markers, extensively annotated and labelled throughout. Plates from the previous edition of Chemoarchitectonic Atlas of the Rat Brain have been re-scanned at high resolution and are shown in color. Labeled structures have been revised, corrected, and updated, providing users with a streamlined, up-to-date, and highly accurate compendium of chemical markers. Researchers with a need to understand the detailed organization of the rat brain as well as structure/function relationships will need this atlas and its array of stains.

The authors of the most cited neuroscience publication, "The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates," have written this introductory textbook for neuroscience students. The text is clear and concise, and offers an excellent introduction to the essential concepts of neuroscience.
