This student-friendly text looks at the relationship between biological factors (mostly brain activity) and behaviour, and shows students what biology has to do with psychology. The author reveals how such aspects of brain activity as neurotransmission and neuroanatomy relate to "real" psychological topics such as language and learning, sexual behaviour, anxiety, aggressive behaviour, depression, and schizophrenia. This revised edition features new art, research, examples, and extended coverage of genetics and evolution.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Fake Book
    Reviewed in Germany on 9 September 2016
    Verified Purchase
    I paid so much for it, and it is not the original. It's black and white, and the paper quality is worse. I would understand it if it was 10-20 euros, but why not at least claiming that it is not the original book?

    I bought this book for my bio. psych class. It is very user friendly and offers detailed images of neurons (both drawn and actual photographs). The information provided is easy to read, by that I mean the author has put it in terms where anyone can easily understand it. Overall a great book for beginning neuroscience.

    BUYER BEWARE: Some sellers will send you the sample version! If this happens to you make sure to let the seller know! If the cover is taped up, make sure it does not day "Sample Copy"!

    I had to get this book for my first psychology class and I am thrilled how brilliant it is. Everything is explained really clearly and the writer seems to be humorous with his comments in the text like "don't think too much or your brain cells will explode". This books is a really good start for anyone taking the path of psychology.

    I needed that book for a course at uni, the greek version was much more expensive and also older, so this had a lot higher value for money!
