This text is a unique inquiry-based introduction to behavioral neuroscience. Each chapter focuses on a central question (i.e., 'How Does the Nervous System Function?') guiding students through the key concepts. The authors emphasize a distinctive clinical perspective, with examples showing students what happens when common neuronal processes malfunction with real life applications. The book reflects the latest findings at the time of publication on specific disorders including Parkinson disease, Alzheimer disease, depression and drug dependency, sleep disorders, schizophrenia, glaucoma, and abnormal development related to prenatal experience.

Bryan Kolb Bryan Kolb received his Ph.D. from The Pennsylvania State University and con-ducted postdoctoral work at the University of Western Ontario and the Montreal Neurological Institute. In 1976, he moved to the University of Lethbridge, Alberta, where he is a professor of neuroscience. His current research examines how pre-conception and perinatal factors ― including tactile stimulation, psychoactive drugs, stress, noise, and injury ― modify the developing cerebral cortex and how these changes are related to behavior. Kolb is a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada; the Canadian Psychological Association (CPA); the Canadian Society for Brain, Behaviour, and Cognitive Science (CSBBCS); the American Psychological Associa-tion; and the Association of Psychological Science. Currently a fellow of the Child Brain Development program of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research, he is a recipient of the Hebb Prize from the CPA and CSBBCS. He has received honor-ary doctorates from the University of British Columbia, Thompson Rivers Univer-sity, Concordia University, and the University of Lethbridge. He is a recipient of the Ingrid Speaker Gold Medal for research, the distinguished teaching medal from the University of Lethbridge, and the Key to the City of Lethbridge. In 2017, he was appointed as an Officer of the Order of Canada. He and his wife train and show horses in Western riding performance events.

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
