Deciphering the link between the human brain and behavior has always been one of the most intriguing--and often challenging--aspects of scientific endeavor. The sequencing of the human genome, and advances in molecular biology, have illuminated the pathogenesis of many neurological diseases and have propelled our knowledge of how the brain controls behavior.

The new fifth edition of Principles of Neural Science is thoroughly updated to reflect the tremendous amount of research, and the very latest clinical perspectives, that have significantly transformed the field within the last decade.

Ultimately, Principles of Neural Science affirms that all behavior is an expression of neural activity, and that the future of clinical neurology and psychiatry hinges on the progress of neural science. Far exceeding the scope and scholarship of similar texts, this unmatched guide offers a commanding, scientifically rigorous perspective on the molecular mechanisms of neural function and disease--one that youll continually rely on to advance your comprehension of brain, mind, and behavior.

FEATURES

• The cornerstone reference in the field of neuroscience that explains how the nerves, brain, and mind function
• Clear emphasis on how behavior can be examined through the electrical activity of both individual neurons and systems of nerve cells
• Current focus on molecular biology as a tool for probing the pathogenesis of many neurological diseases, including muscular dystrophy, Huntington disease, and certain forms of Alzheimers disease
• Outstanding section on the development and emergence of behavior, including important coverage of brain damage repair, the sexual differentiation of the nervous system, and the aging brain
• NEW! More detailed discussions of cognitive and behavioral functions, and an expanded review of cognitive processes
• NEW! A focus on the increasing importance of computational neural science, which enhances our ability to record the brains electrical activity and study cognitive processes more directly
• NEW! Chapter-opening Key Concepts provide a convenient, study-enhancing introduction to the material covered in each chapter
• Selected Readings and full reference citations at the close of each chapter facilitate further study and research
