Sinopsis

This engaging introduction to the field captures student interest and then teaches the latest that biological psychology has to offer.

The book showcases our rapidly increasing understanding of the biological foundations of behaviour, engaging students immediately with easily accessible content. Bob Garrett uses colourful illustrations and thought-provoking facts while maintaining a 'big-picture' approach that students will appreciate.

New to this Edition:

• new and updated topics, including the role of neural connectivity and synchrony, changing views of Alzheimer's disease, the unique behavior of place cells, and emerging understanding of epigenetic influences on behavior

• updated opening vignettes, "Application" and "In the News" features, frequent examples and illustrative case studies draw students into the material

• the broader societal relevance of biopsychology has been strengthened as well, covering diverse topics such as ethical implications of stem cell research, costs of addictions and disorders, and new strategies for treating brain and spinal cord damage

• 500 new references and 50 illustrations have been added, and 60 illustrations have been revised
