This text balances experimental and clinical perspectives with a survey of a variety of mental functions. In a conversational style, the authors provide clear, accessible explanations of difficult concepts, making use of analogies and case studies to illustrate them. A consistent structure throughout each chapter defines a mental function and the role of each part or parts of the brain in that function, followed by a discussion of what neuropsychological syndromes say about the cognitive and neural organization of the mental function.

Sehr gute Einführung in die Gehirnwissenschaften
Reviewed in Germany on 17 March 2014Verified Purchase
Text und Abbildungen der Autorinnen sind klar und eindeutig, so daß auch Anfänger schnell lernen können. Mir hat sehr gefallen, daß in dem meisten Abbildungen Hirne von Frauen gezeigt werden. Die meisten herkömmlichen "Hirnbücher" zeigen nur männliche Köpfe.

Better than expected!
Reviewed in the United States on 8 January 2015Verified Purchase
I love this book. Needed it for a class but I'm still considering keeping it.
It's pretty intimidating material but the author does a great job of clearly explaining points and concepts in a fairly step by step manner.
I can't compare it to other similar books, but if you need it for school you could do much worse. Illustrations are very helpful as well.
