Behavioral Neuroscientists study the behavior of animals and humans and the neurobiological and physiological processes that control it. Behavior is the ultimate function of the nervous system, and the study of it is very multidisciplinary. Disorders of behavior in humans touch millions of people's lives significantly, and it is of paramount importance to understand pathological conditions such as addictions, anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, autism among others, in order to be able to develop new treatment possibilities. "Encyclopedia of Behavioral Neuroscience" is the first and only multi-volume reference to comprehensively cover the foundation knowledge in the field. This three volume work is edited by world renowned behavioral neuroscientists George F. Koob, The Scripps Research Institute, Michel Le Moal, Universite Bordeaux, and Richard F. Thompson, University of Southern California and written by a premier selection of the leading scientists in their respective fields. Each section is edited by a specialist in the relevant area. The important research in all areas of Behavioral Neuroscience is covered in a total of 210 chapters on topics ranging from neuroethology and learning and memory, to behavioral disorders and psychiatric diseases. This is the only comprehensive "Encyclopedia of Behavioral Neuroscience" on the market. It addresses all recent advances in the field. Written and edited by an international group of leading researchers, truly representative of the behavioral neuroscience community, this work includes many entries on the advances in our knowledge of the neurobiological basis of complex behavioral, psychiatric, and neurological disorders. It is richly illustrated in full color. It is extensively cross referenced to serve as the go-to reference for students and researchers alike. The online version features full searching, navigation, and linking functionality. It is an essential resource for libraries serving neuroscientists, psychologists, neuropharmacologists, and psychiatrists.
