Academic publisher SAGE has announced the launch of its first full-colour textbook in Psychology - Brain & Behavior: An Introduction to Biological Psychology, Second Edition, by Bob Garrett.
The new text contains an eye-catching, four-colour interior design and extensive illustrative art programme. Priced at $84.95, Brain & Behavior claims to be the only available text focusing on the "big picture," providing a highly accessible introduction to the biology of behaviour, from emotions to perception to consciousness.
Garrett builds on the material presented throughout the text making a final and convincing case for the power of biological psychology to explain human behaviour. Professors have praised it for its highly readable - but thorough - content, stunning art work, and acceptable price. The ancillaries include an Instructor's Resource CD-ROM, a Student Study Guide, and a companion Website containing state-of-the-art animations.
