Synopsis

Research on the biological mechanisms of learning and memory is undergoing a dramatic revolution as molecular and cellular biology, electrophysiology, neuroethology and neuropsychology increase understanding of the processes that occur in nerve cells, neuronal circuits and brain systems. Bridging all levels of neurobiological analysis, this study of learning and memory describes and explains the concepts, methods, findings and conclusions of modern learning research. The text begins with a treatment of simple nervous systems and molecular mechanisms, and then proceeds to more complex learning in the vertebrate brain. It discusses imprinting and bird song and the relationship between learning and development. The book concludes with the functional organization of highly complex memory systems in the human brain, and their disintegration in amnesia.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Uniquely bridging all levels of neurobiological analysis, this book describes and explains step-by-step the concepts, methods, findings and conclusions of modern learning research. The text starts with a treatment of simple nervous systems and molecular mechanisms, proceeds to more complex learning and development, and concludes with the functional organization of highly complex memory systems in the human brain and their disintegration in amnesia. The book, supplemented by 1100 references and many illustrations, is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses, as well as for neuroscientists who seek a comprehensive overview of the field. It should also be of interest to scientists from other disciplines and to other readers who wish to learn about the new neurobiology of learning.

Revue de presse

The bibliography is good and the presentation is exemplary. This must be the definitive introduction to the neurobiology of memory. (The Lancet)

excellent and readable book ... full marks to author and publisher (Steven Rose, New Scientist)
