Reviews / Votes
"This book successfully tackles a rather complicated and daunting subject, physiological psychology, and presents it in a more student-friendly form. This presentation promotes confidence and mastery of the material" (Doody's Review Service)"This book will be best served by those within the field of psychology, notably undergraduate and graduate students. Additionally, professors of psychology, like myself, will find this book to be a quick reference and an occasional refresher or springboard for research. The authors bring with them a number of years of teaching physiological psychology, and it clearly shows." (Doody's Review Service)
"Pound for pound, one of the finer supplementary books available today. Well-written, easy-to-use, and a strong resource for students. Highly recommended!" (Doody's Review Service)
