Neuroscience, 7th Edition

“Excellent neuroscience text for both undergraduate and graduate student populations. The writing style is easy to comprehend. The figures are excellent and give a great visual interpretation for the content.”- Tanae reed, Eastern Kentucky University“The images and online resources from Oxford are worth making this the assigned text book alone. The reading is comprehensive, current and while difficult for psychology majors - is on par with other biology texts.”- Katherine Serfine, University of Texas at El Paso
