For over 25 years, Neuroscience has been the most comprehensive and clearly written neuroscience textbook on the market. This level of excellence continues in the Seventh Edition, with a balance of animal, human, and clinical studies that discuss the dynamic field of neuroscience from cellular signaling to cognitive function. New learning objectives, and more concise sections make the content even more accessible than before.Neuroscience provides a bridge between the undergraduate and medical school worlds. It brings the relevance of neuroscience to both those exploring careers in the field as undergraduates and those developing core neuroscience understanding for medical school. It accomplishes this by presenting a balance of animal, human, and clinical studies that discuss the dynamic field of neuroscience from cellular signaling to cognitive function.Neuroscience, Seventh Edition, is available with Oxford Insight. Oxford Insight pairs best-in-class OUP content with curated media resources, activities, and gradable assessment, in a guided learning environment that delivers performance analytics, drives student engagement, and improves student outcomes.The eBook offers a mobile experience and convenient access along with functionality tools, navigation features and links that offer extra learning support: Find the eBook on VitalSource.New to this EditionEnhanced organization to be more accessibleTwo new editors that lend their expertise to unit 2 and 3Learning objectives have been added to support better understandingUpdated research: many topics updated or expanded to include new discoveriesSeveral figures have been updated for clarityReorganized "The Changing Brain" feature to clearly define the cell biological principles

Show moreGeorge Augustine is a neuroscientist known for his work on
presynaptic mechanisms of neurotransmitter release and his
contributions to the development of optogenetics, a tool to control
neural activity using light. He is Professor of Neuroscience and
Mental Health and the Irene Tan Liang Kheng Chari Professor in
Neuroscience at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore.
Jennifer Groh studies how the brain processes spatial information,
with a particular emphasis on vision, hearing, and eye movements.
She is the author of an award-winning popular science book on these
topics. Dr. Groh is Professor of Neurobiology and of Psychology and
Neuroscience at Duke University, where she also holds secondary
appointments in Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering.
Scott Huettel studies the neural mechanisms of decision making and
has been recognized for his work in social neuroscience and
neuroeconomics. He is a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at
Duke University, where he also holds secondary appointments in
Neurobiology and Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences.
Anthony-Samuel LaMantia has defined genetic and cellular mechanisms
of neural circuit development in the olfactory system, the
hindbrain, and association areas of the cerebral cortex, as well as
how they are disrupted in neurodevelopmental disorders. He is
Professor and Head of the Laboratory of Developmental Disorders and
Genetics and Director of the Center for Neurobiology Research at
the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute, Virginia Tech-Carilion
School of Medicine, and
Professor of Biological Sciences at Virginia Tech.
Leonard White studies the structure and connectivity of the
mammalian brain using ultra high-resolution magnetic resonance
imaging and lightsheet microscopy. He is at Duke University where
he serves as an educator at the graduate/medical school and
undergraduate levels. He is an Associate Professor in Neurology,
Associate Director of the Duke Institute for Brain Science, and
Director of Undergraduate Studies in Neuroscience.
“Excellent neuroscience text for both undergraduate and graduate
student populations. The writing style is easy to comprehend. The
figures are excellent and give a great visual interpretation for
the content.” - Tanae reed, Eastern Kentucky University
“The images and online resources from Oxford are worth making this
the assigned text book alone. The reading is comprehensive, current
and while difficult for psychology majors - is on par with other
biology texts.” - Katherine Serfine, University of Texas at El Paso
