Biological Psychology is a comprehensive survey of the biological bases of behavior that is authoritative and up-to-date. Designed for undergraduates enrolled in Biological Psychology, Physiological Psychology, or Behavioral Neuroscience, the book continues to offer an outstanding illustration program that engages students, making even complicated topics and processes clear. It offers a broad perspective, encompassing lucid descriptions of behavior, evolutionary history, development, proximate mechanisms, and applications.
The Sixth Edition features a thoroughly redesigned and up-to-date Cognitive Neuroscience module (Part VI; Chapters 17–19), with expanded coverage of attention, executive control, and decision-making processes, in keeping with the latest research breakthroughs. Optional advanced topics are available on the Web as 'A Step Further,' streamlining the printed text to emphasize the important points.
The new edition boasts hundreds of new references, including research students may have encountered in the popular media. Yet critical thinking skills are also honed as the reader is alerted to the many widely held myths about the neuroscience of behavior and educated about facts that sound unlikely to the uninformed. Thorough and reader-friendly, Biological Psychology reveals the fascinating interactions of brain and behavior.
The free-access Companion Website (www.biopsychology.com) is referenced from in-text callouts and in the chapter summaries.
It offers a wide range of study and review resources to help students master the material presented in the textbook. Tightly integrated with the text, with content corresponding to every major heading and subheading in the book, this online resource greatly enhances the learning experience. The site also includes the Biological Psychology Newslink (www.biopsychology.com/newslink) with links to thousands of news stories, all organized by both keyword and textbook chapter. The site is updated daily, so it includes up-to-the-minute information, providing instructors with the latest news in the field—great for use in lecture. The site also helps students make connections between the science of biological psychology and their daily lives and keeps them apprised of the latest developments in the field.
