Since its publication in 1949, D.O. Hebb's, The Organization of
Behavior has been one of the most influential books in the fields
of psychology and neuroscience. However, the original edition has
been unavailable since 1966, ensuring that Hebb's comment that a
classic normally means "cited but not read" is true in his case.
This new edition rectifies a long-standing problem for behavioral
neuroscientists--the inability to obtain one of the most cited
publications in the field. The Organization of Behavior played a
significant part in stimulating the investigation of the neural
foundations of behavior and continues to be inspiring because it
provides a general framework for relating behavior to synaptic
organization through the dynamics of neural networks. D.O. Hebb was
also the first to examine the mechanisms by which environment and
experience can influence brain structure and function, and his
ideas formed the basis for work on enriched environments as
stimulants for behavioral development. References to Hebb, the
Hebbian cell assembly, the Hebb synapse, and the Hebb rule increase
each year. These forceful ideas of 1949 are now applied in
engineering, robotics, and computer science, as well as
neurophysiology, neuroscience, and psychology--a tribute to Hebb's
foresight in developing a foundational neuropsychological theory of
the organization of behavior.
