Preface This book came into being based on teaching rodent neuroanatomy to B.Sc. students of our local Neuroscience program (7 http://www.neuroscience.unikoeln.de/) which started more than 10 years ago. Since there was no book available suited for the beginners, the project started with a number of handouts and transparencies. Although – or because – the number of neuroanatomists in the classical sense is steadily decreasing, a basic understanding of the neuroanatomy of the mouse, an important model system of human diseases, is essential to researchers in the neurosciences, pharmaceutics, and human or veterinary medicine. The lack of introductory literature gave us the idea to conserve our accumulated knowledge in a book accessible to researchers and freshmen from different disciplines.
This, in turn, led to the idea to find a publisher that would be interested in a book on mouse neuroanatomy for freshmen. Fortunately, Springer was directly interested, and the material was revised according to this new concept not available on the market, so far. In this
