Due to the fact that endocrine functions are inherent in almost all areas of the brain, the hypothalamus ceases to be an exclusive object of research by neuroendocrinologists. An increasing number of brain regions are being drawn into the orbit of neuroendocrine research. Among them, the limbic region of the brain attracts the most attention, an important link of which, participating in the regulation of reproductive functions, is the amygdala complex (MC). Latest fundamental analysis, including structural, concerning histophysiologic and neuroendocrinological approaches are presented in the reviewed book. It must be admitted that the publication of this book is timely. Drawing on many years of experience of their own research and extensive literature, the authors analyze in detail the features of the structural organization of this region of the brain and the mechanisms of its interaction with the centers of the brain that control reproductive function. The book consists of a brief introduction, three main chapters and a conclusion. In addition to a large summary of the cited literature, attracts the attention of a rich and very illustrative material. The latter includes a volumetric reconstruction of the entire MC of the brain and its individual components, the reconstruction of the MC on a series of histological sections, each of which is further reproduced in the form of a schematic diagram, and finally, a series of the most informative sections of the MC, reflecting the main structures of this brain region on the frontal sections. Due to its uniqueness, the illustrative material can be used as an atlas of the structural organization of the MC, and therefore it is of independent value.
