Synthesizing the study of cognitive science, behavioral neurology, and behavioral neuroscience, this undergraduate textbook uses clinical case studies to humanize the scientific content. Chapters cover the history of the discipline, the cellular and molecular basis of cognition, the gross and functional anatomy, methodology, perception and encoding, selective attention and orientation, learning and memory, language and the brain, cerebral lateralization and specialization, the control of action, executive functions and frontal lobes, emotion, evolution, development and plasticity, and consciousness. A glossary is provided. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
