Manter and Gatz's Essentials of Clinical Neuroanatomy and Neurophysiology is nice. It's something you can actually read. 😱

I used and abused Duane Haines during 1st year. I also leaned heavily on Blumenfeld (neuroanatomy through clinical cases), which also was a nice synthesis of ideas during 2nd year.

We use Nolte's "The Human Brain". We don't use the Haines text, but his Atlas is quite helpful. I'm also a big fan of "Clincial Neuroanatomy Made Ridiculously Simple".

I used Haines' text and his atlas..

I didn't really care much for the text as I found it had tons of details intertwined with the bigger concept stuff in such a way that was hard to decipher without spending a lot of time. I felt like referencing it only when I needed something from my notes to be put into a bigger perspective and it didn't help much with that.

The pictures in the atlas were tremendously helpful though.

"Cranial nerves in health and disease" by Wilson-Pauwels is great for when you get to cranial nerves
