6 Preface Preface There were mainly two motivation forees behind the development of this atlas: on the one hand we had the wish to make the complex three-dimensional structure of the human brain more comprehensible due to stereoscopic methods. On the other hand we wanted to make the attempt of an aesthetic approach to the architecture of our brain through fascinating illustrations. This combination of precise three-dimensionality and appealing aesthetics is aimed to help studying the complex topography of the brain with mo re pleasure and mo re easily and to get a deeper understanding of neuroanatomy. The atlas was developed on the basis of a 3D brain model by the company ias ( highresolution computer model indudes far mo re than a thousand structures and was produced on the basis of current literature and illustration data in neuroanatomy. We would like to express our thanks to Rolf Lange and Hiltrud Wilbertz from Springer Verlag, who continuously, constructively and with patience drove forward the discussion about the concept and the production. We also thank the Schäfers for letting us stay in their nice holiday fiat in Grömitz on the Baltic Sea where the concept of the book was created. We thank Meggi MaaB, Nike and Franziska for their patience and forbearance. Christina Zinecker did a brilliant job editing the book, Beate Harder helped to do the pro of-reading, Matti Turtiainen, Matthias Gauer and Christoph Krasowski helped producing the 3D model, and Christian Schäfer gave us general support and assistance. Till Hagemann together with Jörn Buchholz and Silke Würtz produced the beautiful CD-ROM. We extend our sincere thanks to allofthem. Let us make a final remark: You can he1p us to improve the atlas. If you have always wanted to have eertain aspeets of the human brain visualized, if you diseover mistakes, if you have suggestions - pleas to us. We will consider all the wishes and ideas as far as possible. Pleas tomartinhirsch@compuserve.com. Thank you very much! Hoping that you will enjoy 100king at the illustrations of the atlas and the even more spectacular 3D worlds of the CD-ROM as much as we enjoyed creating them. Martin C. Hirsch Thomas Kramer Marburg and Berlin,
