| Summary |
BIOS Instant Notes in Neuroscience, 3rd edition, has been reorganized and some detail removed from both text and figures in order to make it a more effective resource for students.€Learning, memory, cognition, and methods have been€updated while the focus of the new edition remains the clear and concise presentation of only essential topics in neuroscience |
