Cognitive Neuroscience is a comprehensive text for an undergraduate class in cognitive neuroscience. This text provides a broader, more general introduction to cognitive neuroscience than books aimed at traditional classes in biological or physiological psychology. A thoughtful discussion of the mind-body problem, an introduction to artificial intelligence and neural networks, and reviews of recent research in cognitive neuroscience set it apart from competing texts. Topic areas are joined together by a functionalist approach, which is in turn supported by a thorough review of evolutionary theory and applications. This functionalist view of cognition and brain science allows the student a single perspective on a broad range of material.
