About this title

Synopsis

As an increasingly diverse student audience studies the brain at some point in the course of an undergraduate education, the need has grown for a conceptually driven and accessible introduction to behavioral neuroscience. Reading more like a good book than a dry text, Jackson Beatty′s The Human Brain meets this need. Focused, concise, and coherent, this brief and engaging book reflects integrative trends in the field while making human neuroscience accessible to a wide audience. A program of spectacular anatomical art favors utility and function over gratuitous window dressing. All at a price your students can afford!

Review

"The greatest strength of this book is the depth of understanding that Dr. Beatty brings to his subject. His written voice is confident and authoritative. It’s usually easy to tell where authors’ personal expertise lies by how they rush the sections they don’t know as well. Dr. Beatty’s book does not show this flaw. It is consistently clear."
