The Cognitive Neurosciences 5th Edition (2015) (PDF) by Michael S. Gazzaniga

Description

Each edition of this classic reference has proved to be a benchmark in the developing field of cognitive neuroscience. The fifth edition of The Cognitive Neurosciences continues to chart new directions in the study of the biological underpinnings of complex cognition―the relationship between the structural and physiological mechanisms of the nervous system and the psychological reality of the mind. It offers entirely new material, reflecting recent advances in the field.

Many of the developments in cognitive neuroscience have been shaped by the introduction of novel tools and methodologies, and a new section is devoted to methods that promise to guide the field into the future―from sophisticated models of causality in brain function to the application of network theory to massive data sets. Another new section treats neuroscience and society, considering some of the moral and political quandaries posed by current neuroscientific methods.

User’s Reviews

A paradigm book….The Cognitive Neurosciences have introduced thousands of students and researchers to the field, giving the text cult status among its readers….[The fifth edition is] an accurate presentation of the current direction in the field….it also emphasizes how cognitive neuroscience is becoming related to other disciplines and how it affects society and the daily life of people.

―Minds and Machines

The fifth edition of The Cognitive Neurosciences continues a remarkable tradition of chronicling the advances in cognitive neuroscience and presciently anticipating the future. From techniques to perception, memory to language and consciousness to social relevance it hits all of the important bases in an authoritative manner. It should be the go-to resource for those interested in cognitive neuroscience from the outside or for insiders curious about developments beyond the scope of their own research.
