{"product_id":"neurobehavioral-plasticity-norman-e-spear-9780805814255","title":"Neurobehavioral Plasticity: Learning, Development, and Response to Brain Insults","description":"This book describes a unique combination of research programs based on a striking variety of hypotheses and procedures directed toward understanding the sources and consequences of neurobehavioral plasticity. This remarkable attribute of the nervous system -- to be pliable and capable of being shaped or formed by natural or artificial sources toward adaptation or maladaptation -- is considered in terms of the neurochemical forces and neuroanatomical structure that has been found to be pivotal for this function. The impetus for this volume was a symposium held to honor Robert L. Isaacson for his scientific and pedagogical achievements as well as his contributions to behavioral neuroscience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Corresponding to his three major research interests, the book is divided into three sections as follows: \u003cbr\u003e * the first explores the relationship between the limbic system and behavior, with an emphasis on learning and memory;\u003cbr\u003e * the second considers -- through a wide range of approaches -- issues of plasticity in behavior and brain; and \u003cbr\u003e * the third deals with neural and chemical determinants of normal and abnormal behavior. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This volume is not only a fitting tribute to Isaacson, but also an unusual collection of new evidence, procedures, and theories destined to have significant influence on behavioral neuroscience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Norman E.
