Produktinformationen zu „Fundamental Neuroscience “
This comprehensive text introduces graduate students to the full range of neuroscience, from biochemical, to cognitive, and clinical science, and covers Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, Nervous System Development, Sensory Systems, Motor Systems, Regulatory Systems, and Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience. The organization of the information is transparent, easy to teach from, and follows the way that the neuroscience curriculum is generally taught. For example, the opening chapter covers neuroanatomy, which is foundational for much of neuroscience. The organization also corresponds to the specialty areas that active neuroscientists will identify themselves with (e.g., developmental neuroscience, molecular neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience). While the book does not have a clinical focus, it does cover a wide range of disorders. This material is featured in compact, clinical text boxes distributed throughout the chapters, more directly linking the disorders to the fundament.
Klappentext zu „Fundamental Neuroscience “
Fundamental Neuroscience, 3rd Edition introduces graduate and upper-level undergraduate students to the full range of contemporary neuroscience. Addressing instructor and student feedback on the previous edition, all of the chapters are rewritten to make this book more concise and student-friendly than ever before. Each chapter is once again heavily illustrated and provides clinical boxes describing experiments, disorders, and methodological approaches and concepts. A companion web site contains test questions, and an imagebank of the figures for ready use in presentations, slides, and handouts.Capturing the promise and excitement of this fast-moving field, Fundamental Neuroscience, 3rd Edition is the text that students will be able to reference throughout their neuroscience careers!
New to this edition:
30% new material including new chapters on Dendritic Development and Spine Morphogenesis, Chemical Senses, Cerebellum, Eye Movements, Circadian Timing, Sleep and Dreaming, and Consciousness
Companion website with figures, web links to additional material, and test questions
Additional text boxes describing key experiments, disorders, methods, and concepts
Multiple model system coverage beyond rats, mice, and monkeys
Extensively expanded index for easier referencing
