It highlights the principles, discoveries, and remaining mysteries of modern cognitive neuroscience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eBrain and Behavior \u003c\/em\u003ecovers a wide swath of territory critical for understanding the brain, from the basics of the nervous system, to sensory and motor systems, sleep, language, memory, emotions and motivation, social cognition, and brain disorders. Throughout the narrative, the authors emphasize the dynamically changing nature of the brain, through the mechanisms of neuroplasticity. Wherever possible, they refer to elements of neuroscience that are encountered in everyday life. Key points and concepts are illustrated using case studies of rare but illuminating brain disorders. Brain and Behavior pulls together the best current knowledge about the brain while acknowledging current areas of ignorance and pointing students towards the most promising directions for future research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Eagleman, Jonathan Downar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0195377680\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195377682\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 688\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.10h x 8.60w x 1.10d","brand":"David Eagleman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43946280976639,"sku":"9780195377682","price":239.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_65f817d5-293d-4fdd-84a0-19627e6a221e.jpg?v=1681512342","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/brain-and-behavior-david-eagleman-9780195377682","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
