The text is written to serve as the primary textbook for an introductory neuroscience course in medical school.

The text is intended to be a viable primary textbook for basic neuroscience courses in neuropsychology, audiology, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, and it has been class - tested successfully with students in all of these fields. It also provides a useful primer for neurology and neurosurgery residents.
