Brain & Behavior: An Introduction to Behavioral Neuroscience, Sixth Edition (2021) by Bob Garrett and Gerald Hough — Winner of the 2022 Textbook & Academic Authors Association's McGuffey Longevity Award — showcases the ever-expanding body of research into the biological foundations of human behavior through a compelling big-picture approach.
With thought-provoking examples and a vibrant, carefully crafted visual program, this acclaimed SAGE Publications textbook allows any student — regardless of prior science background — to appreciate the importance and relevance of behavioral neuroscience. Authors Garrett and Hough translate complex concepts into accessible narratives, connecting neural mechanisms to the behaviors students observe in themselves and the world around them.
New to the sixth edition: fully revised learning objectives aligned with Bloom's taxonomy; a streamlined box feature program; an expanded collection of foundational animations; and updated research on timely topics including drugs and addiction, sex and gender, emotion, stress, and mental health. The text comes packaged with a complete teaching and learning ecosystem.
Topics covered: functional neuroanatomy; neurons, synapses, and neurotransmission; the structure and function of the nervous system; sensory and motor systems; sleep and circadian rhythms; learning and memory; language and lateralization; intelligence and cognition; emotion and stress; hunger, eating, and metabolism; reproductive behaviors; drugs, addiction, and reward; psychological disorders including depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and autism; neurodegenerative disease; and the biological bases of consciousness.
Ideal for: undergraduate behavioral neuroscience, biological psychology, physiological psychology, and brain and behavior courses; pre-med and pre-nursing students; psychology majors; neuroscience majors; and graduate students needing a comprehensive review.
