Principles of Neural Science

Principles of Neural Science, 5th Edition, examines how nerves, the brain, and the mind function. The textbook affirms that all behavior represents an expression of neural activity and ties the future of clinical neurology and psychiatry directly to progress in neural science.

Coverage spans biological scales from individual molecules and anatomic structures to integrated neural systems and cognitive function. The volume explains how these levels of organization interact to direct mental and physical processes.

This 1,760-page reference includes more than 900 full-color illustrations that support explanations of neural structures and cellular processes.
