Neurobehavioral Anatomy: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Neurobehavioral Anatomy" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Contemporary neuroscience is now making major progress in explaining the biological basis of a wide range of normal and abnormal behaviours. Neurobehavioral Anatomy provides a timely introduction to the organisation of human behaviour within the structure of the brain. Writing from the viewpoint of behavioural neurology, it outlines how cognitive and emotional functions are represented in the brain to produce the many behaviours regarded as uniquely human. The effects of focal and diffuse brain lesions are reviewed, and from this analysis emerges a conception of the normal operations of the brain in health. The author has combined essential information from many sources into a concise synthesis describing an overview of brain-behaviour relationships. Clinically practical and theoretically stimulating, this book demonstrates that the understanding of the mind must consider the anatomy of the brain.
