Excellent Undergrad Text
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
Overall this is an excellent text for an undergraduate level course. It is the 3rd book on the subject that I've read and the best of the lot. It is much more conprehensive than the others, but does not get into the details of some graduate level books.

The content deserves a 5 star, but I gave it 4 stars overall because of a couple shortcomings. The graphics don't convey the 3 dimensionality of the anatomy. All of my anatomy texts do a far better job representing internal structures, and this becomes extremely important.

2nd, there are some areas overemphasized, some omissions, and a problem with the order of presentation. The chapter on attention tells me that one of the authors researches in this area. Sorry, it doesn't warrant a chapter. You know you're on the wrong track when you spend an entire page just explaining the minutiae of a single experiment. Second, there was no mention of intelligence. Yes it's a hotbutton issue. No excuse for ignoring it. Finally, issues were raised, such as fear or emotions, that use the same structure. It would be helpful to discuss the anatomy in more detail early on instead of introducing structures piecemeal.

Overall an excellent book.

A Bad Experience with this seller
Customer Rating:  Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1
I had a really bad experience dealing with this seller. I ordered my book on May 30, and by the time the estimated delivery date of June 23 had passed, I had tried to contact this seller three times without a response. Before I could file a claim with Amazon, I received an apologetic email from the seller explaining that he was unaware of my purchase and would ship the book immediately the next day. Alhough a refund was offered I foolishly accepted the order because I urgently needed the book. An additional week went by without a shipping confirmation and when I tried to get in touch with the seller again, I did not receive a response. I filed a claim with Amazon that is still being resolved. I would definitely avoid this seller and would buy your books from someone else.

Yay Neuroscience

I am using this textbook in my neurobiology book and its very helpful. It is well written and they use examples that help you to connect to the topic. The Cd-Rom that comes with it is very helpful for learning neuroanatomy.
