Description - Brain Plasticity and Behavior by Bryan Kolb

The topic of brain plasticity and behaviour is the focus of this book. It addresses the relationship between recovery from brain damage and changes in the brain that might support the recovery, and also includes studies of humans as well as laboratory species, particularly rats. The subject matter identifies a consistent correlation between specific changes in the brain and behavioural recovery, as well as various factors such as sex and experience that influence this correlation in consistent ways. Evolving from a series of lectures given as the McEachran Lectures at the University of Alberta, this volume originally began as a summary of the lectures, but has expanded to include more background literature, allowing the reader to see the author's biases, assumptions and hunches in a broader perspective.
