Carigie's Neuroanatomy of the Rat
If this were a traditional textbook of neuroanatomy, many pages would be devoted to a description of the ascending and descending pathways of the spinal cord and several chapters to the organization of the sensory and motor systems, and, perhaps, a detailed discussion of the neurological deficits that follow various types of damage to the nervous system would also be included. But in the first draft of this book, the spinal cord was mentioned only once (in a figure caption of Chapter 2) in order to illustrate the meaning of longitudinal and cross sections. Later, it was decided that even this cursory treatment of the spinal cord went beyond the scope of this text, and a carrot was substituted as the model. The organization of the sensory and motor systems and of the peripheral nervous system have received similar coverage. Thus, this is not a traditional text, and as a potential reader, you may be led to ask, "What's in this book for me?" This book is directed primarily toward those students of behavior who are either bored or frightened by the medically oriented texts that are replete with clinical signs, confusing terminology, and prolix descriptions of the human brain, an organ which is never actually seen in their laboratories. I should hasten to add, however, that this text may also serve some purpose for those who read and perhaps even enjoy the traditional texts.
The careful explanation of each step of the dissection, helpful diagrams and illustrations, and detailed discussion of the structure and function of each system in Anatomy and Dissection of the Rat, Third Edition, optimize the educational value of the dissection process. These laboratory exercises are available as a bound set for the first time ever; They’re still offered separately, as well. This popular series, which includes Anatomy and Dissection of the Frog and Anatomy and Dissection of the Fetal Pig, is geared toward introductory courses in biology, comparative anatomy, and zoology.
Anatomy and Histology of the Laboratory Rat in Toxicology and Biomedical Research presents the detailed systematic anatomy of the rat, with a focus on toxicological needs. Most large works dealing with the laboratory rat provide a chapter on anatomy, but fall far short of the detailed account in this book which also focuses on the needs of toxicologists and others who use the rat as a laboratory animal. The book includes detailed guides on dissection methods and the location of specific tissues in specific organ systems. Crucially, the book includes classic illustrations from Miss H. G. Q. Rowett, along with new color photo-micrographs. Written by two of the top authors in their fields, this book can be used as a reference guide and teaching aid for students and researchers in toxicology. In addition, veterinary/medical students, researchers who utilize animals in biomedical research, and researchers in zoology, comparative anatomy, physiology and pharmacology will find this book to be a great resource. - Illustrated with over a hundred black and white and color images to assist understanding - Contains detailed descriptions and explanations to accompany all images helping with self-study - Designed for toxicologic research for people from diverse backgrounds including biochemistry, pharmacology, physiology, immunology, and general biomedical sciences

The Mouse Nervous System provides a comprehensive account of the central nervous system of the mouse. The book is aimed at molecular biologists who need a book that introduces them to the anatomy of the mouse brain and spinal cord, but also takes them into the relevant details of development and organization of the area they have chosen to study. The Mouse Nervous System offers a wealth of new information for experienced anatomists who work on mice. The book serves as a valuable resource for researchers and graduate students in neuroscience. Systematic consideration of the anatomy and connections of all regions of the brain and spinal cord by the authors of the most cited rodent brain atlases A major section (12 chapters) on functional systems related to motor control, sensation, and behavioral and emotional states A detailed analysis of gene expression during development of the forebrain by Luis Puelles, the leading researcher in this area Full coverage of the role of gene expression during development and the new field of genetic neuroanatomy using site-specific recombinases Examples of the use of mouse models in the study of neurological illness
"This atlas is an outgrowth of a project on the histology of the white rat originally supported by the Upjohn Company, Kalamazoo, Michigan. For several years our friends and colleagues at the Upjohn Company, namely Dr. Ernest A. Feenstra and his staff, were aware of the need for a well-documented photographic atlas of normal tissues and organs of the laboratory rat. They sought the counsel of one of us (Dr. M. Lois Calhoun) to plan such an atlas. As the work progressed and interest in the plates grew, we began to search for means to make the material available to other investigators using the rat as an experimental animal. The Wistar strain rats supplied by the Upjohn Company of Kalamazoo were five to six weeks old and weighed approximately 120 grams. By the time the atlas was completed, we had processed about 40 animals. The drawings which precede each system are intentionally diagrammatic. They are anatomically correct in that all the organs are included, but in order to make the diagram more meaningful their positioning may not always be exact. The authors sincerely hope that this collection of photographs will be especially helpful to those scientists who use this remarkable animal for research and yet may not be entirely familiar with histology. We also believe this may help students in histology become familiar with the major organ systems."--adapted from Preface, pages 7-8.
