Want to understand the biological processes that underpin our
behaviour? Look no further! Neurotransmitters are a core element of
biological psychology and essential for the correct operation of
brain circuits. This textbook focuses on eight core
neurotransmitters and explores the machinery underpinning their
function. This includes how they are synthesised, packaged, and
facilitate communication between neurons. Each chapter focuses on a
single neurotransmitter, outlining its machinery and discussing
what research suggests about how the alteration of this machinery
may contribute to various atypical behavioural states. This
structure will help guide the reader through complex ideas in a
clear and comprehensive manner. From Dopamine to Nitric Oxide, and
from Acetylcholine to Serotonin, Brain and Behaviour places
specific focus on how alterations in neurotransmitters can
contribute to specific atypical behaviour such as ASD, Epilepsy,
Depression, and Addiction. It is essential reading for any student
of neuropsychology, neuroscience, or biological psychology. Brain
and Behaviour also includes features to help enhance your
understanding of neurotransmitters, such as: - Research methods
focus boxes - Famous researcher spotlight - Test yourself questions
Martin Clark is Lecturer in Neurobiology at the University of
Central Lancashire.
