Description: Basics of Biopsychology clearly presents the fundamentals of the study of the biology of behavior and makes the topics personally and socially relevant to the student.

Written in a friendly, engaging, narrative ― and at times autobiographical ― tone, Basics of Biopsychology makes the field of biopsychology accessible and appealing. By emphasizing four interwoven themes (“Thinking Clearly,” “Clinical Implications,” “The Evolutionary Perspective,” and “Cognitive Neuroscience”) throughout the book, the major recent developments in the rapidly changing field of biopsychology come alive clearly and completely for students.
