This new edition of a successful text retains the core aim of 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.

This new edition of The Brain and Behavior builds on the success of the previous edition and retains the core aim of providing an accessible introduction to behavioral neuroanatomy. The text is presented in a highly structured and organised format to help the reader distinguish between issues of anatomical, behavioural and physiological relevance. Simplified and clear diagrams are provided throughout the chapters to illustrate key points. Case examples are explored to set the neuroanatomy in the context of clinical experience.
This book, developed by a neuroanatomist and a psychiatrist, is the first anatomy text to acknowledge the growing acceptance of an inextricable link between the "organic" and behavioral dimensions of medicine. In spite of the explosion of information associated with the new neuropsychiatry, spurred by advances in brain imaging, brain "mapping" and research in neurochemistry, there is no textbook of neuroanatomy that embraces this new approach to psychiatric disorders. Behavioral Neuroanatomy will serve as a short course or review on the structure and function of the central nervous system and its clinical relevance to diagnosing and managing mental illness.
