Gluck, Mercado and Myers's Learning and Memory is the first textbook developed from its inception to reflect the convergence of brain studies and behavioural approaches in modern learning and memory research incorporating findings both in animals and humans. Each chapter integrates coverage of both human memory and animal learning, with separate sections specifically devoted to behavioural processes, brain systems, and clinical perspectives. KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS * Integration of neuroscience and behavioural approaches * Integration of human and animal studies * Focus on applied aspects, including practical insights and novel treatments for brain disorders and the effect that research into learning and memory has had on our daily lives. * Unique full-colour art program * Thoughtful pedagogy includes chapter opening vignettes, special topic boxes, 'Test Your Knowledge' questions, interim summaries, concept checks, key points and terms, and suggested further reading. STUDENT SUPPLEMENTS * Companion Website at www.worthpublishers.com/gluck1e: Offers a range of study tools such as Web Quizzes, Audio Downloads, Web Links, Learning Objectives, Chapter Outlines, and Flashcards.

About the Author

MARK A. GLUCK is a Professor of Neuroscience at Rutgers University, Newark, USA, co-director of the Memory Disorders Project at Rutgers-Newark, and publisher of the project's public health newsletter, Memory Loss and the Brain. His research focuses on the neural bases of learning and memory, and the consequences of memory loss due to aging, trauma, and disease. He is co-author of Gateway to Memory: An Introduction to Neural Network Modeling of the Hippocampus and Learning (MIT Press, 2001). In 1996, he was awarded an NSF Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers by President Bill Clinton. That same year, he received the American Psychological Association (APA) Distinguished Scientific Award for Early Career Contribution to Psychology. EDUARDO MERCADO is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York, USA. His research focuses on how different brain systems interact to develop representations of experienced events, and how these representations change over time. Dr. Mercado currently uses techniques from experimental psychology, computational neuroscience, electrical engineering, and behavioural neuroscience to explore questions about auditory learning and memory in rodents, cetaceans, and humans. CATHERINE E. MYERS is a Research Associate Professor in the Psychology Department at Rutgers University, Newark, USA, working in experimental neuropsychology and computational neuroscience. She is co-director of the Memory Disorders Project at Rutgers-Newark as well as Editor-in-Chief of the project's public health newsletter, Memory Loss and the Brain. Her research focuses on human memory, specifically on memory impairments following damage to the hippocampus and associated brain structures. She is co-author of Gateway to Memory: An Introduction to Neural Network Modeling of the Hippocampus and Learning (MIT Press, 2001) and author of Delay Learning in Artificial Neural Networks (Chapman and Hall, 1992).
