The Brain and Behavior
An Introduction to Behavioral Neuroanatomy
Second Edition
This new edition of The Brain and Behavior builds on the success of the previous edition and retains the core
aim of providing an accessible introduction to behavioral neuroanatomy. Human behavior is a direct
reflection of the anatomy of the central nervous system, and it is the goal of the behavioral neuroscientist to
uncover the neuroanatomical basis of behavior. Recent developments in neuroimaging technologies have
led to significant advances on this front.
The text is presented in a highly structured and organized format to help the reader distinguish between
issues of anatomical, behavioral, and physiological relevance. Simplified and clear diagrams are provided
throughout the chapters to illustrate key points. Case examples are explored to set the neuroanatomy in the
context of clinical experience.
The book is written for behavioral clinicians, trainees, residents, and students, and will also be of interest
to psychiatrists, psychologists, neurologists, and neuroscientists seeking an accessible overview of beha-
vioral neuroanatomy.
David L. Clark is Associate Professor in the School of Biomedical Sciences at The Ohio State University.
Nashaat N. Boutros is Professor of Psychiatry and Neurology, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral
Neurosciences, Wayne State University School of Medicine.
Mario F. Mendez is Director of the Neurobehavior Unit for the Veterans Affairs Greater Los Angeles
Healthcare System.
