For some students this knowledge will be needed for subsequent formal study, and for all readers it will be needed to evaluate and interpret reports about cognitive neuroscience research that make their way daily into the news media and popular culture. The book seeks to do so in a style that will give the student a sense of what it's like to be a cognitive neuroscientist: when confronted with a problem, how does one proceed? How does one read and interpret research that's outside of one's sub-area of specialization? How do two scientists advancing mutually incompatible models interrelate? Most importantly, what does it feel like to partake in the wonder and excitement of this most dynamic and fundamental of sciences?\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMethodology Boxes\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWalkthrough of Pedagogical Features\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCompanion Website\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection I: The Neurobiology of Thinking\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Introduction and History\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 The Brain\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection II: Sensation, Perception, Attention, and Action\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Methods for Cognitive Neuroscience\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Sensation and Perception of Visual Signals\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Audition and Somatosensation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 The Visual System\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Spatial Cognition and Attention\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Skeletomotor Control\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Oculomotor Control and the Control of Attention\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection III: Mental Representation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Visual Object Recognition and Knowledge\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Neural Bases of Memory\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Declarative Long-Term Memory\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Semantic Long-Term Memory\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 Working Memory\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection IV: High-Level Cognition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 Cognitive Control\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 Decision-Making\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 Social Behavior\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 Emotion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 Language\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e20 Consciousness\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlossary 562\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 571\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Psychology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Psychology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Psychology%20%5BJM%5D%22\"\u003eJM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52501158986008,"sku":"9781119676164","price":42.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781119676164.jpg?v=1786213420","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/essentials-of-cognitive-neuroscience-emea-edition-paperback-softback-9781119676164","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
