简介
This book/CD-ROM text covers foundations of the field, the sensory systems, motivated behavior, and learning and verbal communication. Learning features include objectives, summaries, thought questions, and key terms. The CD-ROM contains animations demonstrating concepts of neuroscience, plus self-tests. This fifth edition contains expanded discussion of evolution of the human brain, facial recognition, and the evolution of language, and reflects the discovery of new nociceptors, ligands, and photoreceptors. There is also expanded discussion of the role of the prefrontal cortex in emotion, decision making, and memory. Carlson teaches at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst. Annotation c.
