Product Description
Product Description
For undergraduate junior/senior level courses in Behavioral Neuroscience, Physiology of Behavior, Biopsychology, Human Neuropsychology, or Physiological Psychology.
Foundations of Behavioral Neuroscience offers a briefer, sixteen chapter introduction to the foundations of physiology, incorporating the latest studies and research in the rapidly changing fields of neuroscience and physiological psychology. The text uses many human examples, case studies, and MyPsychKit (www.mypsychkit.com) featuring Carlson’s Neuroscience Animations to help make the material interesting and relevant to student readers. Foundations of Behavioral Neuroscience is ideal for the instructor who wants a briefer text with a balance of human and animal cases.

Format:Paperback
This was the recommended textbook for my Biological Psychology university module and even though it's expensive, it was definitely worth buying because it was really helpful as it explained important concepts clearly and really helped in my revision. Would've been a bit better if it wasn't so expensive though, seeing as I'm a student!

DONT ORDER FROM AMAZON!
11 Jan 2011
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you need the book edition that comes with "mypsychkit" do not order from here, its very misleading and says its "(MyPsychKit Series)", but DOES NOT include any access to mypsychkit online. I ordered this book assuming it was the right edition I needed because of the title and did not find out until class started, that I had to pay an extra $35 for access! Your best bet is to buy the package from the Pearson website, its the same price and a lot LESS HASSLE! Whoever typed the title is clearly a moron, because this is definitely NOT the same edition! Conveniently there's no way to contact amazon unless I want a refund, and now its too late to wait on the real book to be shipped!

Carlson has terrific Neurosicence text
24 Dec 2010
Format:Hardcover
I've used Carlson's Neuroscience books for years and find this to be an excellent up to date Behavioral Neuroscience foundation with clear interesting chapters. Love the use of clinical cases at the beginning and end of chapter to pique reader's interest as in a mystery novel. It has terrific image quality and great links to media in MyPsychkit companion. I commend the author on keeping the book manageable for a one semester course in light of this rapidly expanding technical field.

Not as thorough as I would have liked
27 Nov 2011
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This textbook covered a lot of material, but was not as thorough as I would have liked for the course it was used for. I found it to stop short on many points and seemed to just skim the surface when it should have gone much deeper to give a clearer picture. If I had to choose to a textbook I think I would search a little further than this publication for my students.
