About this title

From the Back Cover:

Key Benefit: This book introduces undergraduate students to the fundamentals of biology in mental processes. Key Topics: Cellular and molecular neurobiology, such as transmission and mechanisms of nerve cell signaling, are highlighted. Details of the molecular mechanisms of nerve cell signaling, how interconnections between neurons form during development, as well as the use of genetically modified animals, show the importance of neural science for cognitive psychology. Special emphasis is pl aced on the effects of behavior, brain imaging, computational science, systems, and cellular neurobiology. Market: Undergraduate and graduate students in biology and psychology.
