This CD-ROM is more than the `film of the book', as it compliments and extends the authors' hardback publication of 1998. It enables the user to play with brightly coloured images of the human brain, turn them around, view them from whichever angle is chosen and put labels on them. It also enables the user to superimpose 3D reconstructions of individual neuronal systems on serial MRI images of the brain with the intention that a clinical neurologist can `accurately localize the systems in relation to neighbouring structures'a particularly reassuring aim for those undergoing an invasive intracerebral procedure. Indeed one of the stated aims of the authors is
