Synopsis

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. Providing a solid foundation in today’s behavioral neuroscience, this new edition weaves together historical perspective, cutting edge research, and clinical case studies. This text draws on the latest developments in genetics and epigenetics, genetic mutation, connectomics, brain imaging, genetic engineering and transgenic techniques, and our understanding of diseases and disorders.
