The manual is devoted to one of the most important sections of normal human anatomy - the anatomy of the nervous system. The material is presented from functional positions, taking into account the International Anatomical Nomenclature (2003 g.) ). It systematizes and summarizes modern ideas about the macro-microscopic anatomy of the nervous system. The regularities of the structure of the neuron, reflex arc, afferent and efferent nerve fibers system. The functional significance of the main anatomical formations in each part of the nervous system is shown and the most characteristic clinical manifestations in their lesions are presented. Modern ideas about the dynamic localization of functions in the cerebral cortex are considered, the main conductive pathways of the central nervous system are described in detail, and the main aspects of the structure of the peripheral nervous system are revealed from morphofunctional positions. The text of the manual is richly illustrated with classical and original drawings. The manual is designed for students of medical universities and students of psychological faculties of universities . It can be used by neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychiatrists and psychoanalysts, otorhinolaryngologists, ophthalmologists, etc. , as well as teachers of specialized clinical departments . In addition, an appendix is attached to the text - an atlas of photographs of natural macropreparations on the anatomy of the central nervous system. ;Griff:Recommended by the Educational and Methodological Association for Medical and Pharmaceutical Education of Russian Universities as a textbook for students of medical universities
