Sinossi
In this unique inquiry-based introduction to behavioral neuroscience each chapter focuses on a central question (i.e., "How Does the Nervous System Function?"). The authors emphasize a distinctive clinical perspective, with examples showing students what happens when common neuronal processes malfunction.
The new edition continues the tradition of incorporating the latest research into the fundamentals of nervous system functioning and the interaction between our behavior and our brains. Revisions include new material discussing current research on genetic mosaics and modification, including:
- Transgenic techniques and optogenetic techniques
- Neurotransmitters
- Hormones
- Brain development in adolescence
- Psychobiotics
- Color perception
- Biorhythms
