内容説明
This text describes the functioning of the brain and its nerve cells, and is aimed at the first-time student. It presents an overview of brain anatomy and physiology, from molecules to the mind, and concludes with discussions of learning and memory, and language and consciousness. The third edition includes: developments in cognitive neuroscience, with expanded, illustrated coverage of imaging work; more on ageing and Alzheimer's disease; and revised presentation of visual systems emphasizing higher visual functions in the ventral and dorsal streams. There is also a printed test bank supplement.
