  • Exceptional figures illustrate complex biological processes
  • Boxes discuss other pertinent and relevant topics
  • Includes access to Sylvius 4 Online: an interactive atlas and visual glossary of human neuroanatomy

New to this Edition:

  • An expanded Cognitive Neuroscience unit includes new chapters on Attention and Decision Making
  • Reorganization across the book enhances continuity
  • The Neural Signaling unit has been expansively updated
  • Web Topics provide novel or historical topics for special discussion
  • 900 illustrations help students to visualise the brain
