This book has a really good presentation making it easy to understand step by step a normally daunting subject. Fantastic. The loose leaf version enable pages to be removed and comfortable position for the computor to get and reference information easily instead of having to struggle with a large book in a confined space continually losing the page being worked on.It is always difficult finding the relative information required for dyplomas etc. This book has an easy find system, and a really good method of getting that information over to the students easily.A Good Job.
I love this book. I also love the fact that it is looseleaf. Just make sure you read the description.This text puts complex subjects in terms that make sense for anyone who is being introduced to neuroscience. Fantastic topics, enjoyed reading it for class.
It is a required text for my graduate course. Given the data involved at the cellular level for the biology aspects related to emotions and personality/relationship issues, a lot of it is difficult and complex. This text makes it about as clear as it can become.
This textbook has an incredible supplementary website: biopsychology.com. You should definitely check it out, even if you don't buy the book; it does not require a sign in to use.
