The Human Brain: Essentials of Behavioral Neuroscience - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Based on teaching introductory psychobiology and his Principles of Behavioral Neuroscience (Brown & Benchmark, 1995), Beatty (psychology and neuroscience, U. of California at Los Angeles) consciously avoids the "everything but the kitchen sink" approach to introducing this complex, rapidly evolving field. He overviews the tools and philosophical and ethical issues of studying the brain, nervous system functioning and disorders, the senses, sleeping and waking, drives, emotion and stress, language, memory, learning, and brain plasticity. Chapters include key term definitions, b&w illustrations, and suggested readings. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
