Description
Cortical Functions by John D. Stirling provides an in-depth exploration of the cerebral cortex, its structure, connections, and functions. This comprehensive guide covers various aspects of brain function, including language, sensation, perception, and movement.
The book includes clinical descriptions and case studies to illustrate conditions such as agnosia, aphasia, and the split brain syndrome, as well as a review of methods in neuropsychology. Stirling's approach offers straightforward coverage of complex topics, making this an ideal resource for those seeking a thorough understanding of the brain's role in behaviour.
