Neuroscience: Exploring the Brain (**)

Product Information

The human genome has been sequenced, sophisticated new methods have been developed for genetic engineering, and new methods have been introduced to enable visualization and stimulation of specific types of nerve cells and connections in the brain. Students have online access to a “journal club,” flashcards, and their own access to animations and videos. Our nonprofit hopes to inspire young and capable students to discover their passion in neuroscience by supplying them related activities and projects as well as to positively impact the community by supporting free clinics and senior communities through volunteer and fundraising events. The authors’ passion for the dynamic field of neuroscience is evident on every page, engaging students and helping them master the material.

Neuroscience: Exploring the Brain (International Edition)

But the obvious advantage of a tag-team, multiple authors approach should be a guarantee that every chapter and topic in text would be covered by accomplished, well-known experts writing about her-his specialty. Includes a section for a younger audience -Neuromads-, where authors will publish articles accompanying each submission in a close and attractive language, that will be peer-reviewed by teenagers. Over 80 pages are devoted to light transduction in rods and cones, retinal neuro-circuitry in generating opponent receptive fields, and the more complex receptive fields of the primary visual cortex. First, an entire chapter deals with neuroimaging technology, bringing together all the major techniques for studying the living brain in one place.The advantage of a single-authored book is a consistent voice and narrative style, which is not always the case in books with multiple authors, unless the senior editor exerts a strong hand throughout the book. Quite well, and Luo lists his own large and impressive list of “critical and developmental advisors and consultants” who helped him. Fourth, discussions of neuroimaging studies naturally led to the incorporation of more cognitive neuroscience. What I really liked about the textbook are the last two chapters: one on evolution of the nervous system, in which the role of genetics and development interact to produce the form that enables neural function.
