The brain and behavior : an introduction to behavioral neuroanatomy / David L. Clark, Nash N. Boutros, Mario F. Mendez.

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextLanguage: English Publication details: Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2018. Edition: Fourth editionDescription: xi, 239 pages : illustrations (black and white) ; 25 cmISBN:
  • 9781316646939
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 612.82 23 CLA
Contents:
Anatomy of the gross brain -- Histology -- Occipital and parietal lobes -- Temporal lobe: neocortical structures -- Frontal lobe -- Basal ganglia -- Diencephalon: hypothalamus and epithalamus -- Diencephalon: thalamus -- Brainstem -- Limbic system: temporal lobe --. Limbic system: cingulate cortex -- Asymmetry and interhemispheric connections.
Summary: This new edition retains the core aim of of the previous one by providing an accessible introduction to behavioral neuroanatomy. Human behavior directly reflects the anatomy of the central nervous system, and it is the goal of the behavioral neuroscientist to uncover the neuroanatomical basis of behavior. Recent developments in neuroimaging technologies have led to significant advances on this front. The text is presented in a highly structured and organized format to help the reader distinguish between issues of anatomical, behavioral and physiological relevance. Simplified and clear diagrams are provided throughout the chapters to illustrate key points.
