MODULE 7
SUGGESTED READING
1) Neuroanatomy through Clinical Cases by Hal Blumenfeld. The basal ganglia are covered in Chapter 16. There is an extensive discussion of movement disorders in the last part of the chapter; it is quite good and you will probably want to read it. However, in this module we are primarily concerned with the anatomy of the basal ganglia and the pathways that connect the various components of this complex system. We suggest you start by reading the following:
2) Fundamental Neuroscience for Basic and Clinical Applications by Duane E. Haines. Third Edition. The basal ganglia are covered in Chapter 26, starting on page 414.
3) Principles of Neural Science by Eric R. Kandel, James H. Schwartz and Thomas M. Jessel.
