Today, the need for a single-volume introduction to |
neuroscience is greater than ever. |
This third edition attempts to capture the promise |
and excitement of this fast-moving discipline. |
All the |
chapters have been rewritten to make them more |
concise. |
The volume begins |
with an opening chapter that provides an overview of |
the discipline. |
The remainder of the volume (Sec- |
tions II鈥揤II) presents the major topics of neuroscience. |
The Editors edited the chapters to |
achieve consistency of style and content. |
