  This third edition builds on its predecessor's strong research base, student-oriented style, and comprehensive topical coverage and adds a totally redesigned illustration package. An art and photo programme is now included, with the majority of art redesigned and enhanced to better complement Pinel's pedagogy. Difficult technical topics such as neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and genetics are now supported by improved illustrations. Pinel weaves together the main concepts and findings in the field with anecdotes, metaphors, case studies, and personal implications.

  This revised edition presents comprehensive coverage of this discipline, with a strong research base and a student-oriented approach. Difficult technical topics such as neuroanatomy, neuropsychology and genetics have been simplified in this edition, and anecdotes, metaphors and case studies are included. 500 new references have been added, and the chapter on emotion, stress and mental illness has been thoroughly revised. These three topics have now been closely interwoven, emphasizing the health consequences of stress and its related emotional states.
