Brain and Behavior covers all the topics of a biological psychology course but follows an atypical chapter order that, in the author’s experience, fosters student engagement earlier in the course than the traditional format does and provides an improved sequence for learning. The integration of sensory material into behavioural contexts enhances student interest in topics they often regard as boring. Finally, the text includes two chapters not found in other biopsychology texts, on the biological bases of intelligence and consciousness. New to the Second Edition: research Methods have been moved from an appendix to its own chapter early in the book which now also covers ethics; complex sections have been pared down and given more examples and pedagogical support.
