How does brain activity give rise to sleep, dreams, learning, memory, and language? Do drugs like cocaine and heroin tap into the same neurochemical systems that evolved for life’s natural rewards? What are the powerful new tools of molecular biology that are revolutionizing neuroscience? This undergraduate textbook explores the relation between brain, mind, and behavior. It clears away the extraneous detail that so often impedes learning, and describes critical concepts step by step, in straightforward language. Rich illustrations and thought-provoking review questions further illuminate the relations between biological, behavioral, and mental phenomena. With writing that is focused and engaging, even the more challenging topics of neurotransmission and neuroplasticity become enjoyable to learn. While this textbook filters out non-critical details, it includes all key information, allowing readers to remain focused and enjoy the feeling of mastery that comes from a grounded understanding of a topic, from its fundamentals to its implications.

The course has been designed for beginners in Neuroscience. The course has been designed in a way that it suits the requirements of all, concerned with the study of Neuroscience and Neurology, Brain and its correlates. The concepts and terminology of neuroscience have been presented in simple, and easy to understand language to facilitate the beginners of Brain and Brain Sciences.New techniques such as electrodes that can touch the surface of cells, human brain scanning machines and touch on some of the ethical issues and social implications emerging from brain research. We have manual for all the machines, except for the most important one – The human brain. Fascinated by the mysterious inner working of the human brain, Abhijeet Satani decided to compile a user-friendly guide for students to learn about neuroscience; this book explains how your brain work in easy and simple ways. -Dr. Garry User, NeuroscientistI wish I had this book to my resort while graduating in medicine and specializing in psychiatry, it would have made neuroscience more comprehensive for me then.

Free Download Social Neuroscience: People Thinking about Thinking People by John T. Cacioppo, Penny S. Visser, Cynthia L. Pickett
English | 2005 | ISBN: 0262033356 | 320 Pages | PDF | 1.2 MB
Social neuroscience uses the methodologies and tools developed to measure mental and brain function to study social cognition, emotion, and behavior. In this collection John Cacioppo, Penny Visser, and Cynthia Pickett have brought together contributions from psychologists, neurobiologists, psychiatrists, radiologists, and neurologists that focus on the neurobiological underpinnings of social information processing, particularly the mechanisms underlying "people thinking about thinking people." In these studies such methods as functional brain imaging, studies of brain lesion patients, comparative analyses, and developmental data are brought to bear on social thinking and feeling systems—the ways in which human beings influence and are influenced by other humans.
