Instructors of behavioural neuroscience are faced with the challenge of how to teach the course's complex material in an accessible and relatable, yet comprehensive way for undergraduate students. For more than twenty years, Breedlove and Watson's Behavioural Neuroscience has successfully
solved these problems by presenting the most current, definitive, clear, and authoritative introduction to the field. Using stellar examples of today's most exciting research, an unparalleled art program that clarifies even complex biological processes, visual summaries to remind students of the
principle findings presented in each chapter, and a comprehensive suite of digital support tools--including animations with built-in assessments that help test the student's knowledge of biological and behavioural processes and neuroanatomy--Behavioural Neuroscience, Ninth International Edition,
remains the best resource available to teach introductory neuroscience and behavioral neuroscience courses.
