Paxinos & Watson's rat brain atlas is the most cited and used brain atlas in research labs, and it deserves that status. However, in a couple places it may be misleading or confusing. This is particularly evident in the brainstem. We have found irregularities in the ventrolateral medulla (both caudal and rostral) in this book (co-labeled as C1 and A1), as well as an apparent mix-up between the obex and calamus scriptorius of the rat.However, in the grand scheme of things, this atlas is a great tool to have.Also, the vector graphics data provided on the CD is an INVALUABLE tool when preparing figures.Click Here to see more reviews about: The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates, Fourth Edition (Paperback)
