Description - Findings and Current Opinion in Cognitive Neuroscience by Larry R. Squire
The study of cognitive neuroscience has grown during the 1990s. Brain imaging techniques have allowed researchers to address questions that until recently remained in the realm of speculation. Moreover, better computers and theories have led to more detailed models of neural function. These developments have made it possible to link perception, attention, memory and other aspects of cognition to neurobiology. Because researchers come to cognitive neurosciences from a variety of fields, researchers and students alike often find it difficult to ascertain the core literature. This volume, which contains 46 review articles from issues of "Current Opinion in Neurobiology", aims to provide easy access to the state of theory and findings in the field. The book is organized into five sections - perception and attention, neuronal plasticity and memory, cognition, the organization of action and development and structure. The articles contain bibliographies to enable the reader to pursue individual topics in greater depth.
