5 out of 5 stars Solid book   December 24, 2008
I bought this for a class, and in fact, I finished reading the entire book. I would say it is quite clear in relating possibly difficult subjects, and the order is logical. The topics I felt it was most successful in are: synaptic plasticity and sensory systems. For cognitive neuroscience, this particular book was not as detailed as the other book by the same author, which deals specifically with that field.
Some minor typographical errors in this book, but about 10 out of the entire text is not bad.



5 out of 5 stars Book review   November 29, 2008
The initial part of this book is hard to understand without a neuroscience background. But the systems and the cognitive parts of the book are very good with neat illustrations. Brand new and prompt delivery from Amazon as always.


5 out of 5 stars I love Neurobiology!!!   October 23, 2008
I love this book. It is very informative and in a way that is understandable and not complicated. Also, there is an online study help with the book that is very helpful and informative.

4 out of 5 stars Good diagrams and software   June 29, 2008
The software that comes with this book is actually useful, which veterans of college text books will find surprising. Also, the pictures and diagrams are very straightforward. The material is also covered at a good depth for undergraduates.
