Behavioral Neuroscience
Author:S. Marc Breedlove, Neil V. Watson
Edition:8th Edition
Examining how brain structure and function shape behavior, this text connects neural activity with processes such as perception, emotion, learning, and cognition. It integrates neuroanatomy, physiology, and biochemistry to explain how biological systems influence behavior across development, adaptation, and mental health.
