Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuropsychology

This text balances experimental and clinical perspectives with a survey of a variety of mental functions. In a conversational style, the author provides 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.Banich, Marie T. is the author of 'Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuropsychology' with ISBN 9780618122103 and ISBN 0618122109.
