If you need the book edition that comes with "mypsychkit" do not order from here, its very misleading and says its "(MyPsychKit Series)", but DOES NOT include any access to mypsychkit online. I ordered this book assuming it was the right edition I needed because of the title and did not find out until class started, that I had to pay an extra $35 for access! Your best bet is to buy the package from the Pearson website, its the same price and a lot LESS HASSLE! Whoever typed the title is clearly a moron, because this is definitely NOT the same edition! Conveniently there's no way to contact unless I want a refund, and now its too late to wait on the real book to be shipped!UPDATE: I feel the need to update this as I have had two review nazis leaving negative comments, when I purchased and left this review it was in 2010...since then they have obviously changed the description of the text (so it no longer says it includes "mypsych kit" anymore, as it did when I ordered it and the description was wrong) thankfully refunded me $35 of my purchase to cover the costs of having to buy "mypsych kit" from the Pearson website since they were in fact at fault. It was my first experience buying from and unfortunately was a very negative one, I have since bought hundreds of things from with no problem. The associate was very helpful and understanding of my frustration at the time and informed me that they were in fact wrong and would work on changing the description to make it accurate. Unfortunately this was not done and completely resolved until after I had left my review, it was posted not to down /the publisher/the book etc...

Foundations of Behavioral Neuroscience is an excellent textbook aimed at an advanced undergraduate to graduate-level audience. At first, I feared the book was going to be too basic as it labored over explaining terms such as e-n-z-y-m-e and p-h-a-g-o-c-y-t-o-s-i-s. "Noooooo," I exclaimed to myself; "this book is for those who haven't even taken high school chemistry or biology!" But my early concerns proved to be baseless as the book smoothly transitioned into very good and thorough explanations of more advanced topics.Of necessity there was some overlap with the subject matter covered in other neuroscience textbooks I have read recently. After all, the textbook explicitly states that it takes up *foundations*. However, the repetitive material was very brief and was limited to only what was necessary to establish the foundation of the material to follow.The textbook really began to hit its stride once it had passed the more elementary portions and moved into the behavioral neuroscience topics such as sleep, reproductive behavior, emotion, ingestive behavior, and learning and memory. All of these areas were covered thoroughly at a level that was neither too simplistic nor overwhelmingly complex. Just like Goldilocks, I felt the textbook had found a balance that was *just right* for my own autodidactic needs.As an autodidact, though, I was frustrated by the over-reliance on the supplemental materials in MyPsychLab. I don't know if this was available on an accessory CD-ROM or DVD or on a web site, but in any case, it was not material that was available to me, except presumably for the payment of an additional fee.
